UFC Vegas 95: Full Prelims Prediction and Preview
Toshiomi Kazama vs. Charalampos Grigoriou
The prelims will feature a Bantamweight bout between Toshiomi Kazama and Charalampos Grigoriou. Kazama, with a record of 10-4-0, is seeking a comeback after losing his last two fights.
Meanwhile, Grigoriou, who has a record of 8-4-0, also faced defeat in his previous bout. Both fighters are eager to return to the win column. Predictions favor Grigoriou, who is expected to win by knockout due to his superior striking skills and knockout power, including 6 wins by knockout and 4 first-round finishes.
Karol Rosa vs. Pannie Kianzad
In a Women’s Bantamweight bout, Karol Rosa (17-6-0) faces Pannie Kianzad (17-8-0). Rosa lost her last fight to Irene Aldana by decision but is predicted to win this bout by unanimous decision.
