NATAN LEVY VS MIKE BREEDEN LOWDOWN
Natan Levy (6-1) finally made his UFC last November only to suffer his first loss. He racked up five wins for the Legacy Fighting Alliance (two submissions and three decision) before his opportunity to impress Dana White. He took of Shaheen Santana (2020) on the Contender Series and pulled off a brilliant arm-triangle choke in the third round. That led to his debut against Rafa Garcia (2021) but got outclassed in a unanimous decision.
Mike Breeden (10-4) is also coming off a loss on his UFC debut. No one really gave him a chance stepping up on short notice to fight Alexander Hernandez and he did not give an accurate account of himself getting knocked out in the first round.
NATAN LEVY VS MIKE BREEDEN PREDICTION
More was also expected from Levy on his debut, and we are expecting better performances from both men this weekend. Levy comes from a strong karate background, and it would be great to see those skills and movement although we can see him relying on his grappling again.
Breeden will hope he decides to stand and bang as he is made for it. He is a dangerous striker, but on paper, Levy has the skill and technique to outpoint him on the feet and the wrestling to take him down and pursue a submission.
We are backing Levy, but if he does not show the form that got him to the UFC, Breeden will make him look silly.
