Manoel Sousa favored — picked against Richie Miranda lean UFC Fight Night: Gamrot vs Salkilld · August 4, 2026
strikinggood grapplinggood

Picked against, though the analyst credits him as well-rounded and notes personal familiarity with him going back to his amateur career.

A well-rounded fighter the analyst has followed since his amateur days. Good enough striker with an active jab and steady volume, fighting from either stance, though he leans on durability more than the analyst would like by taking one to give one. The grappling is a stronger suit: a good takedown arsenal built on technique and chaining rather than raw athleticism, active off his back, and a good choke arsenal that has already produced a finish.
