Mitch Ramirez vs Mike Davis Preview
The last time we saw Mike Davis in the octagon, he lost via unanimous decision to Fares Ziam. That was his first loss since 2019, when he lost to an elite fighter in Gilbert Burns. Davis bounced back from that loss to Burns with a knockout win over Thomas Gifford. He will look to inflict similar damage to Ramirez after a loss in this fight.
Mitch Ramirez comes into this fight with two losses in his last three fights. Those losses came against Carlos Prates and Thiago Moises, both of whom are quality fighters. The American was knocked out in both of those losses. And while Ramirez has some explosive hands of his own, he has to do a better job of protecting himself if he wants to avoid a third loss in four fights here.
Physically, Davis holds a slight advantage in reach and should be able to maintain range. Davis is also the busier fighter in terms of strikes landed and takedowns, making this an uphill climb for Ramirez.
Betting Insights
- Davis is a heavy favorite at -1000, Ramirez is a +600 underdog to get the win.
- Each of Ramirez’s last five fights have ended via knockout, with Ramirez going 3-2 in those five fights.
- Davis has seen three of his last four fights go the distance.
- Davis’ last win came via submission against Natan Levy in March of 2024.
Mike Davis vs Mitch Ramirez Prediction
Below are my keys to this fight:
- Range control and pace: Davis will dictate the distance, using sharp combinations and leg kicks to prevent Ramirez from getting close enough to hurt him.
- Cardio: Davis’s higher volume output suggests he will peak in the late rounds, while Ramirez may fade.
- Path to victory: Davis has more paths to victory in this fight, as he is the better striker and has a better history of securing takedowns.
To me, Mike Davis arrives with a more diverse offensive skill set. Despite Ramirez’s not facing as good a fighter as he has in recent fights, he should still struggle against the dangerous offense of Davis. I recommend backing Davis confidently to win via decision, as the price of that outcome is better than the price for him to just win this fight as a heavy favorite.
