DWIGHT GRANT VS SERGEY KHANDOZHKO LOWDOWN
Dwight Grant (11-4) is just about managing to stay afloat in the welterweight division. He is 3-3 in the UFC after dropping a split decision to Francisco Trinaldo back in October last year which came after a split decision win over Stefan Sekulic five months prior at UFC 261.
He takes on Sergey Khandozhko (26-6-1) who arrived with a fair amount of hype, but after his two UFC appearances in 2019, we have not seen him. He handed Rostem Akman his first loss beating him via a unanimous decision on debut, but then lost one against Rustam Khabilov five months later. There is no harm losing to Khabilov but no win in nearly three years is alarming.
DWIGHT GRANT VS SERGEY KHANDOZHKO PREDICTION
It is tough to predict how Khandozhko will perform with how long has been out especially fighting someone of the calibre of Grant. Grant has only lost to top fighters and possesses dangerous knockout power.
Expect him to fire off the left hook and overhand right from range with his extremely long reach. Khandozhko also has a healthy reach but will be giving up two inches. If he comes in confident and can avoid the predicable bombs from Grant, he can start to rack up the points with his volume.
With Grant’s inconsistency and Khandozhko’s inactivity, this is certainly one to stay clear of from a betting point of view. We are backing Khandozhko, but this is tough to call.
