Jonathan Micallef vs Oban Elliot: Fight to go the distance - Yes

This is a closely lined matchup between two fighters who don’t carry much power in their hands.

Jonathan Micallef is coming off a decision win over Kevin Jousset in his UFC debut. While he brings a solid grappling base, he may struggle to consistently work into submission positions against higher-level opposition.

Micallef throws dangerous kicks at range, but Oban Elliott does a good job of closing the distance to initiate takedowns. Elliott relies heavily on his wrestling and top control, with seven of his last eight fights going the distance.

Quillan Salkilld by KO/TKO or DQ

Rising prospect Quillan Salkilld squares off with UFC veteran Jamie Mullarkey to kick off the main card. The 26-year-old Salkilld last competed at UFC 321, where he earned a Performance of the Night bonus after starching Nasrat Haqparast with a highlight-reel head kick.

Mullarkey has become a highly hittable fighter who once relied on durability, but that chin now appears compromised. He’s gone 4–4 over his last eight fights, with all four losses coming by KO/TKO.

The UFC appears to be positioning Salkilld for another highlight-reel knockout — and it’s a setup bettors can take advantage of.

Dan Hooker vs Benoit Saint Denis: Fight to go the distance - No

The co-main event will be a banger between Benoit Saint Denis and Dan Hooker. Nineteen of BSD's 20 career fights have ended inside the distance, with only one of those bout making it past the second round. 

Saint Denis owns a 100% finish rate and draws a 36-year-old Dan Hooker, who is making his second weight cut in two months and has been finished in each of his last four losses.

That said, Hooker remains a formidable striker, particularly with his dangerous knees up the middle. Saint Denis has a habit of leaving his chin exposed, which could allow Hooker to land something significant.

There’s also a path on the ground, as Saint Denis’ sloppy head position on entries could give Hooker a chance to lock in a guillotine. Hooker owns seven submission wins in his career and attempted two guillotines against Arman Tsarukyan in his previous fight.
