Prediction:
This fight is shaping up to be a striking and grappling showcase. Both fighters have a mix of knockout power and submission skills, but Salkilld’s versatility in the stand-up and ground game gives him a slight edge. While Jubli is a dangerous striker, his loss to Breeden and the wear-and-tear of high-level competition may come into play. Salkilld, with his unbeaten record and well-rounded game, will likely look to control the pace and pressure Jubli with a combination of technical striking and ground control. Expect Salkilld to push the action, mixing his striking with timely takedowns and submissions.
