Grant Dawson favored — picked against Mark Madsen clear UFC Fight Night: Rodriguez vs Lemos · November 2, 2022
The analyst says he likes Dawson pretty highly in this matchup and expects him to get the win.
Madsen's wrestling pedigree is Olympic-level, but it's rooted in Greco-Roman style, which is built around clinch throws and upper-body control rather than shooting for legs, and that's a different toolkit than what his opponent brings. He remains undefeated in MMA and has real upside pressing an opponent against the cage and using those throws, though his striking is still considered a work in progress and his overall fight count is lighter given how much time went to international competition.
