UFC 299 is scheduled to occur in the United States on the night of March 10th. During one of the preliminary card bouts, Moldovan fighter Ion Cucelaba will face Brazilian Felipe Lins in the light heavyweight category.
Ion Cutelaba
Cutelaba has been a UFC fighter since 2016, and although he has not achieved anything remarkable, his fans adore him for his image and exciting fights. Although Ion has had as many losses as victories, he has faced some worthy opponents such as Magomed Ankalaev, Johnny Walker, and Glover Teixeira. When he does win, it is always impressive. Despite a disappointing 2022 with three consecutive losses, Dana White kept him in the league, and it proved to be the right choice. In 2021, Cutelaba returned to his winning path and knocked out Tanner Boser in the first round.
Philipe Lins
Philipe Lins is 38 years old and has maintained the same tactics and conditioning for many years. Like Cutelaba, he prefers to fight on his feet. Although Lins has never been a star, he is well-known for his bouts with Andrei Arlovski and Maxim Grishin. Philipe even fought Vadim Nemkov while still in Bellator, but unfortunately, he lost by knockout in the first round. The Brazilian has secured three consecutive victories, including a decision over Maxim Grishin. However, he would like to forget that fight as it was uneventful, with both fighters just hanging around the cage.
Expert Betting Tips
It is expected that Ion Cutelaba will bring his aggressive style from the opening seconds and either knock out his opponent or be finished himself, either by submission or knockout. Will the Brazilian stop him at the net and end the fight? Cutelaba may have to go all-in, as he won't have the stamina to fight at a high pace for three rounds.
