Gamrot vs Turner Prediction
Mateusz Gamrot heads into this weekend's fight following a unanimous decision loss to Beneil Dariush at UFC 280. Before that loss, Gamrot had rattled off four consecutive victories, finishing off three of those opponents (two by KO/TKO, one by submission).
It can be argued that momentum is on the underdog's side. Turner has rattled off five consecutive victories, earning 'performance of the night' honors in his most recent outing – a first-round submission win over Brad Riddell at UFC 276.
Even though Gamrot has only suffe red two MMA losses, I like Turner's chances of pulling off an upset. For starters, two of Turner's last five victories came when the odds were against him. He also nearly doubles Gamrot's significant strikes per minute (6.48 vs. 3.26).
While Gamrot has the better striking defense, Turner has the edge in takedown accuracy (80% vs. 31%). If he can find a way to wrestle Gamrot to the mat, there's a decent chance that Turner locks in a hold that the Polish fighter can't get out of.
It should be a competitive matchup either way, however, I see Turner capitalizing on his recent momentum in a big way.
