The UFC is heading to Rogers Place in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, this weekend for a Fight Night event featuring a major flyweight matchup. The main event features former flyweight champ, Brandon Moreno, who will be facing the top contender Amir Albazi. With both fighters ranked among the best in the division, a win could put them on track for a title opportunity.
Brandon Moreno vs. Amir Albazi Prediction
Brandon Moreno, with a record of 21 wins, eight losses, and two draws (21-8-2), is set to make his 17th UFC appearance. In his previous bout in February 2024, Moreno faced Brandon Royval and narrowly lost via split decision. Moreno holds a striking accuracy of 44% and a takedown accuracy of 46%.
He’ll be facing third-ranked contender Amir Albazi, who boasts a professional MMA record of 17 wins and one loss (17-1-0). Albazi’s last fight occurred over a year ago, where he achieved a split-decision win against Kai Kara-France, with a striking accuracy of 39% and a takedown accuracy of 33%.
Predictions lean toward a win for the Mexican fighter, with Moreno’s former championship experience and confidence expected to give him an edge. Albazi’s lower striking and takedown accuracy could also play a factor in this matchup.
