Why Armen Petrosyan Will Win

Armen Petrosyan is a native of Armenia and has a professional record of 8-2. He is an elite striker with a 51% striking accuracy and lands 5.99 significant strikes per minute. However, he has no takedown accuracy and takes on 2.75 significant strikes per minute.

Armen Petrosyan is a highly skilled striker with a technical and precise fighting style. He has an extensive kickboxing background that he has won 70 fights, 27 of which were by knockout. Petrosyan will need to make this as technical as can be if he wants to keep his winning ways going. The moment he gets into a firefight against someone like Duncan, he is destined to be defeated.

Why Christian Duncan Will Win

Christian Duncan showed a bit of what he was capable of in his fight against Dusko Todorovic before the injury stopped the fight entirely. He was in the driver's seat up until that point as he was able to utilize his length to keep Todorovic at the end of his punches as well as defend the takedowns that were attempted his way.

This time we can expect a full-on striking display from Duncan as he gets to take on a striker by trade while not having to be worried about defending takedowns. Duncan's aggressive fighting style will be put on full display at the UFC Apex if he wants to get the job done on Saturday night.

Final Armen Petrosyan-Christian Duncan Prediction & Pick

This will be a strikers delight when these two powerful strikes face off on Saturday night. Petrosyan is at his best when the fight is technical as can be meanwhile, Duncan is better when he makes the fight a barnburner and throws caution to the wind. Seeing as Petrosyan will not have as much real estate to move around in the octagon at the Apex, I believe Duncan will be able to land while not getting hit especially with an 8″ reach advantage. Ultimately, this fight has a ton of fireworks surrounding it and expect a high-level striking match until Duncan lands something hard and puts Petrosyan away.

Final Armen Petrosyan-Christian Duncan Prediction & Pick: Christian Duncan (-154), Under 2.5 Rounds (-104)
