Prediction for the fight Brandon Moreno vs Amir Albazi
The first UFC event of November, Fight Night 246, will be headlined by the top representatives of the flyweight category. Former champion Brandon Moreno will fight Amir Albazi, who is considered a leading contender for the title of contender. Their meeting will take place on November 3, at Rogers Place, Edmonton, Canada.
Moreno is the favorite (1.57). On paper, Brandon has a noticeable advantage in the stand-up and is in no way inferior to Amir on the ground. But in recent fights, the Mexican could not find his distance, threw a lot of single overhands, and had no success on the ground, as if he had been replaced. Perhaps we are talking about mental and physical wear and tear, and if Moreno has not recovered during the 8 months of rest, then he will face a very close and tight fight, again. Without his footwork, sharp jab and serial work, along with good takedown defense and on the ground, with the viscous Albazi, Brandon will have a hard time.
Albazi is an underdog (2.20). Since the fighter's strong point is BJJ and grappling, and in particular his submission game, it is in this area that he will be able to create the greatest danger for Moreno. Amir is on a series of 6 victories, three of which he won with submissions. Of course, Brandon himself can catch him on the ground, but due to a greater number of attempts to get into submissions, as well as transfers and control, Albazi has a chance to take the victory on points. But it will not be easy for him, because in addition to the colossal experience of the ex-champion, the Iraqi athlete will face a 16-month layoff.
Prediction: Total over (2.5) by rounds

Brandon Moreno vs Amir Albazi Prediction
Workrate, movement, defense at all levels and colossal experience should help Moreno surpass Amir on all battlefields. However, we repeat - now this guy does not show his former successes, he is constrained, not so active in attacks, giving the initiative to his opponents. And if Brandon again enters the fight with such an attitude, Albazi will simply outwork him due to control at the net, and frequent attempts to transfer. Therefore, charging Moreno for a victory is still a roulette, but Amir will not be able to easily remove him from the way, therefore a bet on Total over (2.5) by rounds will be appropriate. Otherwise, the early version of the "Kid Killer", if he returns, will win a hard-earned victory on points.
