Yan vs. Figueiredo Predictions Odds

Petr Yan vs. Deiveson Figueiredo - Bantamweight Division

Petr Yan TALE OF THE TAPE Deiveson Figueiredo
31 Age 36
5 ft 7 in Height 5 ft 5 in
67 in Reach 68 in
17-5 Record 24-3-1

Former champion and number-three ranked bantamweight Petr Yan will take on former flyweight champion and number-five ranked bantamweight Deiveson Figueiredo in a five-round main event this Saturday.

After losing his title and three fights in a row, Yan recently snapped his losing streak with a unanimous decision win over Song Yadong that took place at UFC 299 back in March.

A former 125-pound champion, Deiveson Figueiredo moved up to the bantamweight division last December. Starting to suffer from weight cutting issues at flyweight, Figueiredo seems to be thriving at his new weight - having won all three of his bantamweight fights this far.

He is coming off of an impressive unanimous decision win over former title challenger Marlon Vera that took place back in August. A win over Petr Yan would likely cement the Brazilian as the next bantamweight title challenger.

Despite Yan standing two-inches taller it will be Figueiredo who will have a one-inch advantage in reach. 

It is the former bantamweight champion Yan who will come in as the -260 favorite at FanDuel.

Yan Xiaonan vs. Tabatha Ricci - Women’s Strawweight Division

Yan Xiaonan TALE OF THE TAPE Tabatha Ricci
35 Age 29
5 ft 5 in Height 5 ft 2 in
63 in Reach 61 in
17-4, 1 no-contest Record 11-2

Boasting black belts in both Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and judo, number-ten ranked strawweight Tabatha Ricci will look to solidify herself as a title contender should she manage to defeat -210 favorite and former title challenger Yan Xiaonan in her home country.

Ricci has won back-to-back fights in 2024 and is coming off of a unanimous decision win over Angela Hill.

Xiaonan’s last fight took place in the co-main event of UFC 300 - where she took on strawweight champion Weili Zhang. She lost the fight by unanimous decision. She had won back-to-back fights over top-contenders prior to the title loss.

Xiaonan will stand three-inches taller and have a two-inch reach advantage over the younger Tabatha Ricci - who is currently listed as the +162 underdog at FanDuel.

Song Kenan vs. Muslim Salikhov - Welterweight Division

Song Kenan TALE OF THE TAPE Muslim Salikhov
34 Age 40
6 ft Height 5 ft 11 in
71.5 in Reach 69.5 in
22-8 Record 20-5

With 199 kickboxing fights to his credit, Muslim Salikhov looks to build upon his big win over Santiago Ponzinibbio that took place back in July.

He takes on China’s Song Kenan, who is also coming off of a win heading into this matchup. Kenan most recently defeated Ricky Glenn by decision in August. 

Kenan will stand one-inch taller and have a two-inch reach advantage over Salikhov. Although Kenan will be a favorite in the eyes of the hometown fans, oddsmakers have Salikhov listed as the -180 favorite to win.

Wang Cong vs. Gabriella Fernandes - Women’s Flyweight Division

Wang Cong TALE OF THE TAPE Gabriella Fernandes
32 Age 31
5 ft 7 in Height 5 ft 6 in
66.5 in Reach 66 in
6-0 Record 9-3

China’s undefeated Wang Cong is a sanda gold medalist who also holds a kickboxing victory over current women’s flyweight champion Valentina Shevchenko.

This will be just her second fight in the UFC but she made a big splash in her debut back in August - knocking out Victoria Leonardo in the first round.

She takes on Brazil’s Gabriella Fernandes, who is 1-2 in the UFC and is coming off of a split-decision win over Carli Judice that took place in June.

Listed as -530 at FanDuel, the undefeated Wang Cong is the largest betting favorite on the main card by far.

Volkan Oezdemir vs. Carlos Ulberg - Light Heavyweight Division

Volkan Oezdemir TALE OF THE TAPE Carlos Ulberg
35 Age 34
6 ft 1 in Height 6 ft 4 in
75 in Reach 77 in
20-7 Record 10-1

Riding a six-fight winning streak into this contest against former light heavyweight title challenger Volkan Oezdemir, Carlos Ulberg looks to keep his streak alive after having his fight against Anthony Smith this past June canceled.

Oezdemir, who fought for LHW gold in 2018, has had mixed success since. However he is currently on a two-fight winning streak - having earned a first-round knock out over Johnny Walker back in June.

Ulberg will be the taller fighter by three-inches and will have a two-inch reach advantage. He comes in listed as a -295 favorite at FanDuel.

Zhang Mingyang vs. Ozzy Diaz - Light Heavyweight Division

Zhang Mingyang TALE OF THE TAPE Ozzy Diaz
26 Age 34
6 ft 2 in Height 6 ft 4 in
75 in Reach 75.5 in
17-6 Record 9-2

At only 26-years-old, China’s Zhang Mingyang already has 23 professional fights on his record. 

He made his UFC debut back in February, defeating Brendson Ribeiro by first-round TKO at UFC 298.

Mingyang takes on Ozzy Diaz, who will be making his UFC debut this Saturday. He is coming off back-to-back wins in the LFA - both of which took place this calendar year. 

Diaz will be the taller and longer fighter but is still considered to be a +240 underdog at FanDuel for this matchup.
