Magomed Tuchalov favored over Brendson Ribeiro clear UFC Fight Night: Ankalaev vs Guskov · July 19, 2026
strikinggood grapplinggood

Named as the pick, on the reasoning that the cleanest path to a loss for him is a specific, fixable striking habit that hasn't been punished yet.

A good striker with good movement, good knees, and a kick arsenal the analyst rates as his best standing tool -- accurate, with good elbows thrown in the pocket. The one flag is a habit of blitzing with his hands down and his head leading, which usually times out well but eventually invites getting caught, especially against a durable but unpolished striker. Good grappler with good throws and trips as his primary takedown entries, good ground-strike volume, and a habit of advancing position before landing.
