1.35
Magomed Ankalaev enters this matchup with a clear stylistic advantage that makes him the logical pick. As an elite Dagestani grappler with stifling top control and relentless takedown accuracy, he possesses the perfect toolkit to exploit Alex Pereira's primary weakness: defensive wrestling. Pereira's legendary kickboxing power (3.37 underdog odds reflect his puncher's chance) remains terrifying, but his losses to Adesanya and Blachowicz proved elite wrestlers can dictate where fights occur. Ankalaev averages 1.75 takedowns per 15 minutes at a 50% success rate in UFC competition, and once grounded, his smothering top game drains opponents' gas tanks while minimizing striking exchanges. Pereira's 60% takedown defense remains suspect against chain wrestlers of Ankalaev's caliber.
The odds (1.35 for Ankalaev) accurately reflect his higher win probability, estimated around 75-80% based on matchup dynamics. While Pereira only needs one clean left hook to end things, Ankalaev's disciplined striking defense (65% significant strike defense) and patient entry tactics reduce those opportunities. His 12-fight unbeaten streak against top-10 competition demonstrates tactical maturity Pereira hasn't faced from a dedicated grappler. The extreme 50.00 draw odds highlight how unlikely a stalemate is in this striker-vs-grappler clash.
Long-term profitability favors backing fundamental mismatches like this. Ankalaev’s consistent grappling pathways to victory offer far more reliability than banking on Pereira landing a fight-altering bomb while defending takedowns. At current odds, the expected value leans Ankalaev despite the juice – his skill redundancy in wrestling provides a high-probability profit vector compared to Pereira’s high-risk, low-percentage knockout route.
