Damir Ismagulov vs Guram Kutateladze Fight Odds
Damir Ismagulov -160 vs Guram Kutateladze
Fight is at 155 lbs and is +150 to end inside the distance.
Damir Ismagulov is a perfect 4-0 in the UFC and will look to make it a perfect five straight. He has not just beaten brand new lightweights or guys lacking ability. He has already beaten Thiago Moises, Joel Alvarez and Rafael Alves. If I had to rank his opponent in this matchup, I would say he would be an underdog against all three fighters listed above.

Ismagulov will not bring world beating power, but he is a sharp striker. He is extremely defensively responsible in the standup, and that will be the frustrating thing for Guram Kutateladze. The lead hand is just so sharp for Ismagulov and he uses it extremely well to control exchanges. He will not at all cave under pressure, and that will be a huge key in this matchup. Additionally, Ismagulov has a strong wrestling game to fall back on if needed, he simply usually does not have to have reliance on it.
Guram Kutateladze is getting a lot of respect on this betting line. That is due to his impressive split decision win in his debut against Mateusz Gamrot. In this fight, Kutateldze will be tasked with landing with power, and is going to come up empty. Even if he is able to crack Ismagulov, a takedown is sure to follow. We saw Kutateldze taken down five times in his debut, and this is going to be a tough matchup for him. He is truly not going to land much in the standup.
We get a great flat line on Ismagulov at just -160. While it is possible Kutateladze made real developments in the nearly two years since his debut, I am not sure that would even be enough to take this fight. Ismagulov is destined to climb his way up the lightweight ranks, and he will move to a perfect 5-0 in the UFC
Betting Pick: Ismagulov -160
