UFC Abu Dhabi: Abubakar Vagaev vs. Saygid Izagakhmaev Predictions & Odds
Saygid Izagakhmaev will welcome Abubakar Vagaev inside the octagon, as they are set to collide at the UFC Abu Dhabi card on Saturday inside the Etihad Arena on Yas Island, UAE.
Despite his experience competing in the promotion and a higher finish rate, Izagakhmaev heads into the match as the betting underdog with +200 UFC odds, while Vagaev, who’s making his debut, will be the -250 betting underdog.
My prediction is a decision win for Izagakhmaev over Vagaev, as he’s the slightly better striker and has more power in his strikes. Both are incredibly elite grapplers, but I think they’ll just neutralize each other’s skills in this department.
