UFC: Giga Chikadze vs. Calvin Kattar – Fight Analysis, Prediction, and Odds

MMA fans will witness the first-ever UFC event this weekend. UFC is back with the fireworks on the headlining sport. Giga Chikadze and Calvin Kattar will fight for the UFC’s featherweight top 5 positions.

Calvin remains the #5 ranked contender, while Chikadze is the #8 ranked in UFC.

Calvin suffered a brutal loss in his previous bout. Many guys think he fights till the last blood, but suffering KO loss against Holloway would be better for Calvin. He received 500+ punches and sustained lots of different kinds of unnecessary brain damages. However, he still is one of the best boxers of the division. 4 out of his 6 UFC victories are via KO, and he has never been knocked down or knocked out.

Chikadze is on impressive 7 winning streaks in the UFC and nine as a pro-MMA fighter. Inside the octagon, he has never suffered defeat, and he is improving from the fight to fight. He has a massive kickboxing background. He is a former Glory kickboxing champion and has won lots of tournaments in Karate in his early ages. In the UFC, he earned 3 KO victories in his previous 3 bouts. He defeated UFC gangster Cub Swanson and one of the best strikers in MMA, Edson Barbosa, both via TKO.

From my point of view, no one can be back as strong as he was before after suffering such a defeat. Calvin Kattar got destroyed by Holloway, and I don’t think he will be able to do his best against Georgian Ninja. Even crazy fighters like Tony Ferguson could not come back after suffering defeat against Gaethje. Also, receiving lots of damage affects the other fights, so I think Chikadze will earn KO victory in this bout. The winning of Chikadze without decision has the odds of 1.8 while just success has the odds of 1.4.
