Albazi vs Figueiredo Prediction

UFC 278 Albazi-Figueiredo prediction is from Tapology Fight Predictions.
Winner: Amir Albazi (92%)
Method of Victory: Submission (47%)

After beginning his UFC career as a bantamweight, Amir Albazi returns to the flyweight division. Regardless of what division he's in, though, Albazi is someone who likes to make his opponents tap out, scoring five submission victories in his last eight outings.

Francisco Figueiredo is a submission artist in his own right, picking up eight of his 13 career wins with that method. He's been up-and-down lately, going 2-1-1 in his last four outings. Nevertheless, Figueiredo hasn't been as close to dominant as Albazi, who has never tapped out in his career.

Don't overthink things: Albazi winning by submission at +380 is the right call here.
