Jiri Prochazka makes his UFC debut here. In addition to being a newcomer on the big UFC stage, he is primarily a striker, going for the knockout punch. He doesn't match-up well with top-level contender Volkan Oezdemir. Oezdemir is experienced (5-3 in the UFC) and multi-skilled. He is strong at preventing his opponents from taking him down (80% takedown defense) and averages 4.88 significant strikes per minute (45% accuracy). Oezdemir has won two straight UFC bouts, topping Aleksandar Rakic and taking out Ilir Latifi in the second round. Back the more experienced Oezdemir, who is the #7 contender in the division. Play Volkan Oezdemir to win the fight.
