MANEL KAPE vs ASSU ALMABAYEV
Flyweight Main Event:
Manel Kape is a Portuguese fighter who has been in the UFC since 2021, he possesses talent in the fields of striking and overall athletic ability. He has fought a total of 8 bouts within the organization and of these he has won 5 and lost the remaining 3.
He has been on reasonable form over the past few years, winning 5 of his last 6 encounters, with his most recent fight in December resulting in a round 3 TKO win over Bruno Silva.
Assu Almabayev is a fighter born in Kazakhstan who is known for his great stamina and grappling. He is relatively new to the UFC with 4 fights behind him, but it is important to note he has won all of his fights so far with 3 via decision and 1 by submission.
His last 3 fights in a row have ended in a decision, showing he has stamina and can take hits, however this can be negative as well as he has not proved he can finish a fight in his last few meetings against some average fighters.
His most recent fight was held in October last year where he beat Matheus Nicolau by decision after 3 rounds.

Kape 1.47
Almabayev 2.80
PREDICTION:
I believe that this will be an intense battle of back and forth striking but in the end, I think Kape takes this by decision as the favourite.
CODY BRUNDAGE vs JULIAN MARQUEZ
Middleweight Co-Main Event:
Cody Brundage, fighting out of America is a fighter who has battled to get on the winning side of things throughout his career in the UFC which dates back to 2021.
He has stepped in the octagon 10 times, losing 5 of these while winning 4, the remaining fight was his most recent which resulted in a no contest due to Abdul Razak Alhassan hitting the back of Brundage’s head twice.
Julian Marquez is an American fighter who is known for his skilled grappling and striking. He started his UFC career off decently, winning 3 of his first 4 fights however, since then he has been stopped in all 3 of his fights by either KO or TKO.
His most recent bout was in June last year when he was knocked out in the first 20 seconds of the fight against Zachary Reese. After his poor recent form, he will be in desperate need of a win to potentially save his career.

Brundage 2.05
