My picks:

Pereira- The classic grappler vs. striker showdown. Ankalaev is one of the most dominant wrestlers/grapplers in the division with crushing top control. Pereira is the most dangerous and technical striker in the UFC, with one-punch KO power. The key is whether Pereira can keep it standing and land his shots before Ankalaev can get him down. Pereira wins the title by KO.

Sandhagen- Another fascinating style clash. Merab is the human engine with endless cardio and relentless takedowns. Sandhagen is a creative, fluid striker with unorthodox angles and dangerous KO power. Sandhagen’s length and footwork are key. Can he keep Merab at the end of his strikes and avoid the fence? Sanhagen wins the title by KO.
