Uros Medic vs Gilbert Urbina Preview
Uros Medic holds a professional record of 10‑3 with 8 career knockouts in his MMA career. Medic has lost two of his last three fights entering this bout. His most recent fight was a first-round knockout loss to Punahele Soriano in January. He will look to bounce back here but will need to avoid getting stopped in order for that to happen. Medic is 4-3 in his UFC career and all of those wins and losses have come via knockout or submission.
Gilbert Urbina is 7‑4 going into this fight. He comes into this fight having lost three of his last four outings. His last fight was a first-round knockout loss to Charles Radtke. He has also seen all of his UFC fights end inside the distance. He is 1-2 in UFC and he has been knocked out once and submitted once since joining the promotion.
Both of these fighters throw a ton of volume. They both average over five significant strikes landed per minute. Urbina is also willing to go for takedowns and win fights from the ground. But I think we are all hoping to see some frantic striking exchanges in this matchup.

Uros Medic vs Gilbert Urbina Prediction
It would be very surprising to me to see this fight go to the second round. Both of these men have proven time and time again that they are hunting for finishes and are more than capable of being finished themselves in the process. I think the best bet for this fight is the under at 1.5 rounds, as it would be very surprising if we saw both of these frequent finishers fail to get the job done in the first five minutes.
