UFC Vegas 112: Cesar Almeida vs. Cezary Oleksiejczuk: Prediction

I predict a unanimous decision win for Almeida against Oleksiejczuk because of the vicious leg kicks that the former will fire against the latter. Since Almeida has a kickboxing background, his style can neutralize Oleksiejczuk’s boxing-heavy style.

Sure, OIeksiejczuk is the much younger athlete, but he plants his foot heavily when he moves forward, and I think that it will be a great target for Almeida, who’ll be sniping them any chance he gets.

Those kicks will accumulate throughout three rounds and will certainly take a toll on the movement and power of Oleksiejczuk. The only route to victory for Oleksiejczuk is to lure Almeida to a firefight early into the match and catch him with a solid punch or a combination, but that’s highly unlikely given Almeida’s experience.
