Insider info
Melquizael Costa favored — picked against Dan Ige clear UFC Fight Night: Strickland vs Hernandez · February 14, 2026
durabilitygood
He views Costa as the fighter on the rise and expects that improvement, plus a more focused approach, to be enough to get past Ige.
Ige is a boxer at his core with a genuinely good leg kick and real pop in his hands, and he's shown he won't fold or quit on himself. His takedown defense holds up and he can get his own takedown when he chooses to, but that's not really his style - he tends to just look for the fight wherever it goes rather than sticking to a clear gameplan. That lack of a defined identity, plus a real vulnerability once he ends up on his back, is a problem against an opponent who's clearly getting better.
