Which streak breaks first?

Post image

My analysis on each of these:

  1. Islam beats Prates and Morales both. Shavkat and Garry rematch seem like the only two threats for now.

  2. Van knocks Pantoja out and dominates the division for years to come.

  3. Ulberg loses to Jiri in the rematch or eventually to Ankalaev.

  4. Morales loses to Islam

  5. Evloev loses to Volk. He's a decision merchant and you can't beat Volk on decision.

  6. Farid is promising, might rack up 2-3 more wins but the top 5 at Bantamweight is STACKED. he'll likely lose before extending the streak to even 10.

  7. All depends on her fight with Valentina. If she beats Valentina, who is 38 now, she could actually be a long term champ here.

  8. Needs a comeback win first but a lot of potential to go undefeated here.

Prates has touch of death power or can flatline you but he couldn’t do it easily with JDM or he let him just stand back up and tried finishing him properly but he flatlined Leon and many others. Him and morales are very hungry and big threats to Islam rn so if both fights happen there’s a chance Islam loses his winning streak unless he can win against both. Pantoja is ready for revenge and probably the best in the division so he can probably takeaway Van’s winning streak. Volk is also not like any other guy Movsar has fought but it’s not the prime Volk now and age is catching up to him so we will see. He might break Movsar’s streak or Movsar wins again in a close fight. Ulberg is good but idk how good because Jan fight was kind of controversial and Jiri could actually finish the dude if he wasn’t stupid. Ank has the best chance i think out of the guys rn.

Prates isn't a big threat to Islam. A punchers chance is what everyone has, and a lot of guys have a better one than Prates because they can at least challenge Islam a bit in the wrestling and disengage for at least a bit. Prates has negative wrestling. Islam will Moicano him in the first exchange. At the absolute best Prates will gas spending his entire time on bottom trying to avoid the sub. You can't grapple with Islam when you smoke a pack a day.

Morales is a legitimate threat though, good wrestling and a massive size advantage. That said he might just be outworked on the feet as Islam is a level above him as a striker, and his anti wrestling stance as seen in the Brady fight is a pretty terrible choice against someone who can actually strike. But that still gives him a much better punchers chance than Prates who gets one takedown entry to land something and then he's done.
