UFC 305: Junior Tafa Vs. Valter Walker Prediction
Tafa holds a record of 5 wins and 2 losses. In his most recent fight, Tafa stepped in on just one day’s notice to face Marcos Rogério de Lima at UFC 298, replacing his injured brother, Justin Tafa. Unfortunately, he lost the bout by technical knockout in the second round.
Walker has an impressive record of 11 wins with only one loss in his career, including six victories by knockout. This upcoming fight will be Walker’s second appearance in the UFC. In his debut, he lost to Lukasz Brzeski.
Valter Walker is predicted to win this fight due to his knockout power, a trait that fans love in heavyweight matchups. In contrast, Junior Tafa is seen as having less knockout potential.
UFC 305: Josh Culibao Vs. Ricardo Ramos Prediction
Culibao, holding a record of 11-3-1, faced Danny Silva in his most recent fight at UFC Fight Night 239. Culibao missed weight at 148.5 pounds—two and a half pounds over the featherweight non-title fight limit. However, Culibao lost the fight by split decision.
Next, Culibao is set to fight the seasoned Brazilian Ricardo Ramos, who has a record of 16-6. Ramos faced Julian Erosa at UFC on ESPN 53, where he suffered his second consecutive loss via a first-round guillotine choke.
Both fighters are coming off losses, but Culibao has a lower knockout percentage. In contrast, Ramos has a higher knockout and submission rate and possesses more experience, making him the predicted favorite to win this fight.
