Andre Lima favored — picked against Namsrai Batbayar clear UFC Fight Night: Nurmagomedov vs. Song · August 19, 2026
strikinggood grapplinggood

Picked against without much hedge, with the analyst simply favoring the other man's cleaner striking overall.

A forward-pressure striker who leans heavily on a single power hand, backed by a real finishing chain on the ground once he gets there.

Strengthlands power shots from unusual angles and counters well moving forward
Strengthcarries a genuinely heavy leg kick
Strengthmixes in takedowns effectively and hunts the back once grounding an opponent
Strengthwill chain ground-and-pound into a choke attempt once he's attached
Weaknessheavily right-hand dependent, throws comparatively little off the lead hand
Weaknesskeeps his hands low on the feet

strikinggood grapplinggood

Picked with the grappling seen as his likely path to success if the fight gets there, while still being credited as competitive on the feet.

Advances behind legitimate power, mixing in a pull-counter that feeds a right hand on his way forward. One clear flaw: he leans on that right hand too much, particularly once he smells a finish, which narrows his offense at exactly the wrong time. On the mat he's likely the superior grappler here -- solid takedowns, heavy top strikes, effective at getting to the back, and a very tight, dangerous choke from there. He can hold his own standing, but the fight is expected to favor him most if it goes to the ground.

strikingsolid

A forward-pressure fighter who closes distance immediately and swings with real intent, and is explicitly expected not to repeat the retreating style that frustrated his opponent last time out. That aggression is the whole read: it makes him a live threat to finish, and it also hands a counter-striker the openings he needs. His only professional defeat came against a well-regarded opponent, and the physicality and intensity he brings are expected to win him fights in the promotion — just not this one.
