UFC 268: USMAN VS. COVINGTON ODDS ANALYSIS
Rematch the game that Usman won. Both of them have good punches, but in power, Usman has a punch. In response to Usman, who had a body blow, the challenger ended with headhunting.
In terms of value, Usman is a solid rock. He is an undefeated UFC champion and seems to be growing every game. Is he not yet in his heyday? I don't know that, but every time I enter octagon, he keeps showing more and more good. Knocking out Jorge Masvidal was something that no one could do in the UFC, and Usman did it.
In the rematch, the winner wins with a probability of around 70 %. At the same time, the champion defends the belt with a 70 % probability. These two statistics are already advantageous to Usman.
Both are excellent wrestlers, but in the first round, both were offset, and both wrestling were offset.
In the case of a hit battle again, Usman is better for the striking stats. The average number of hits in one minute is large, not only is the accuracy, the absorption amount is low, and the blow defense is excellent. In addition, the king has a 4-inch advantage in reach. < SPAN> Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will r e-hold a PPV event full of action on November 6, 2021.

Overall, I think Covington's punch count will get him a round or two, but I don't think it will stop his inevitable power to break through defenses and take the win by cold. The value is again on Usman. He's one of those guys that just can't fade away. | Fighter | Kamaru Usman |

UFC 268 Preview & Analysis
UFC 268 Welterweight Championship Kamaru Usman vs. Colby Covington Prediction
These two have met once before, with Usman winning by fifth-round TKO. It will be interesting to see how they have evolved since then.
Just before that, two-time UFC strawweight champion Rose Namajunas will defend her title against the recently dethroned Weili Zhang.
UFC 268 is packed with entertaining bouts and big names. Notably, Alex Pereira, the only man to ever knock out current UFC middleweight star Israel Adesanya, makes his UFC debut on Saturday.
Multi-division champion and MMA veteran Frankie Edgar takes on Marlon Vera, and Justin Gaethje and Michael Chandler face off in the co-main event.
Those are my predictions for UFC 268.
Kamaru Usman is 4-0 in UFC title defenses, with three of his wins coming by KO or TKO from inside distance. (AP)

Odds Analysis UFC 268 Odds Analysis
Kamaru Usman is well on his way to becoming the best in the 170-pound division. With a likely title defense this weekend, if he is successful he will be the fifth UFC champion to defend his title. If he beats Covington again he will tie Valentina Shevchenko for fifth all-time in UFC title defenses. That's big.
After losing to Usman at UFC 245, Covington has the grit and determination to stay in the top five after defeating former champion Tyron Woodley in five rounds. Kind of like Robert Whittaker.
It's clear to see the first fight for a hint of what will happen in the rematch. Despite both fighters being phenomenal grapplers, the five-round striking battle was ultimately won by Kamaru Usman. Their wrestling skills cancelled each other out.
Given Usman's first win over Covington and his newfound knockout ability, I see this as a checkered matchup in Usman's favor.
I know Usman can go a full 25 fights without running out of gas, but Covington just doesn't have that knockout ability. Covington has 4 knockout wins in his career. 2 of those were submissions due to injury. He just doesn't have the finishing ability. 6 of his 11 UFC wins have been by decision.
Gaethje-Chandler Best Bet: Justin Gaethje inside the distance
UFC 268 Featherweight Bout Shane Burgos vs. Billy Quarantillo Prediction
Usman has the reach advantage and more importantly the power advantage. If these two go toe to toe and both land punches at the same time, Covington will go down and Usman will stay on his feet. We saw that a while ago.
The path to victory is for Covington to win on the cards. For Usman, it's either a decision win with a few knockdowns here and there or another finish at range. If Covington lands a guillotine in the fight, Usman could be able to submit.
Overall, Covington is more likely to have to trade blows with Usman. I wouldn't call Covington a pillow fist, but it's not far off.
Let's not forget that the new scoring system is all about damage. Usman can fall behind in strikes and still win with fewer power punches. That happened in the Petr Yan vs. Cory Sandhagen fights.
Also, don't forget I put Usman in the Jon Jones category.
The co-main event at UFC 268 will feature a second Trevor Wittman-coached fighter on the same card.
Rose Namajunas dominated in 2017 to claim the title against former champion Joanna Jedrzyk. Her rise to GWOAT status seemed inevitable until her slam KO loss to Jessica Andrade halted her rise to stardom.
Rose got her revenge in 2020, taking the title from champion Zhang Weili, who had beaten Andrade during that time.
Weili is a similar opponent to Joanna Jedrzyk, especially in the volume department. Luckily for Rose, she has faced high-volume strikers three times (twice against Joanna and once against Zhang) and is prepared for this type of opponent.
I believe Rose is adept at using her power striking and good footwork to hold off Weili's aggressive barrages in the later rounds. And yes, I expect this fight to be longer than the first one. Like in the second fight against Jedrzyk, Rose will adopt a more patient style in her rematch. She did the same with Andrade.
All of Rose's rematches have been at distance, and each of her previous fights have all ended at distance. This is very interesting.
Burgos-Quarantillo Best Bet: Billy Quarantillo
UFC 268 Bantamweight Bout Frankie Edgar vs. Marlon Vera Prediction
Weili is a super tough competitor, but I think she lacks the kind of substantial fights that Namajunas had. I hope to see some stability in this division, which has been in disarray since Joanna's first loss to Rose. At 115 pounds, we have had three champions in four years.
Weili's aggressiveness is a perfect match for Rose's counter style. Overall, you can change gyms as much as you want -- Weili Zhang moved to train with Henry Cejudo -- but the basic instincts of your fighting style never change. Zhang is the aggressor, Rose is the counterpuncher.
Based on Rose's past rematch tendencies, I'd favor a decision victory for him.
Justin Gaetze is looking to bounce back on Saturday after his loss to Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 254. (AP)
This is a "banger". I was convinced that the match would not be so settled since Nan u-Lewis. But after all, everyone was wrong. Let's pray that there will be no match like that train accident this weekend.
By the way, both Chandler and Geache are both hits. There is a possibility. However, as far as I saw Chandler, he lacks the toolbox in this game. The weapon he uses is to aim for the opponent's head, mostly overhand or hooks.
I hope that Gesge's specialty, a kick, will be shown in this game. If you use a kick in the right way, this game will be easier for Gesge.
To be honest, it's strange that no one talks more about this game. In the first two games in UFC, he has already seen Chandler struggling to deal with his kick. If the game with Hooker had passed one round, that forefoot would have been dangerous.
The same was true for Oliveira. The champion Charles's sharp calf kick, Chandler once attached the floor.
Edgar-Vera Best Bet: Fight goes the distance
UFC 268 Preliminary Card Picks
UFC 268 Middleweight Bout Alex Pereira vs. Andreas Michailidis Prediction
Chandler fights like a recent McGregor. Chandler, who wants to hurt the opponent immediately, puts his lead leg on the opponent's base and defeats the opponent on the principle of leverage. However, if you aim for the lead leg, Chandler falls into a pinch.
Both prefer a fight at a close range, but Gesge 2. 0 (Post Poirier) covers well when kicking off. Treva Whitman has acknowledged the element and believes that it is incorporated into the game plan in the chandler battle. Chandler needs KO immediately, but Geache can go to the finish while accumulating damage on the lead leg. I bet on Gesge.
Chandler has not yet achieved a track record in UFC and is used to fighting against the lower rank.

Shane Bargos has played twice in MSG in New York, all of which have won two insides. (AP)
In a one minute, a total of 14. 37 strikes were released, absorbing 10. 44 shots. The finish is inevitable because more than 20 strikes will fly every minute. Nevertheless, don't go to eat popcorn during this match.
Burgos has a turbulent battle. The quantijo is the same type of fighter, but it has a calm, technique and grappling. The average number of tak e-downs per 15 minutes of Billy is 1. 66 and Burgos is 0. 27.
Burgos has a great advantage in his opponents, as he has greatly reduced his weight to achieve a 14 5-pound limit.
In this game, there is an advantage of 5 inches in reach and a 2-3 inch tall.
Nevertheless, in the past, Burgos's weight loss habit has become an enemy. He has been knocked out twice in the past six games and has a total of 5 degrees down. Nobody knows how the brain will have an effect on the trauma on the trauma.
Burgos is known as a man who is almost impossible to hold down, but the quartzjo has a clever grappling. Even in Burgos, take a takedown from the takesdown battle.
Shahbazyan-Imaov Best Bet: Nassourdine Imavov.
UFC 268 Welterweight Bout Ian Garry vs. Jordan Williams Prediction
Even if Quarantilo cannot take a takedown, a clinch at the cage can be used to seal Burgos's dangerous attack.
Comprehensively, the battle is equal. As I mentioned earlier, I expect this match to be Fight of the Night. Fight of the Night Bonus is applied only to competing games.
UFC veteran Frankie Edgar will take a tough test called Marlon Bella, 135 pounds.
It's not a good sign that a fighter of Frankie, such as a fighter of an age, is not a good sign, and Frankie's achievements have proved it. However, UFC may have found someone he could actually win.
Marlon Bella is a solid foundation fighter, but there is no power to KO early on Edgar, and if not, Frankie can compete in wrestling.
However, Edgar gives the age of 11 to Vera, and his height and height are inferior to 2 inches.
However, Frankie is used to fighting large players, so he doesn't care much about his physique handicap. If anything, Frankie would be more advantageous in strength.
