Expert Picks (4)

Angelo Bodetti Expert Hesitant picked Aug 17, 2025 (6 days before fight)

Diyar Nurgozhay

Angelo picks Diyar Nurgozhay despite calling him a 'hitable loser bum' in his raw notes from his last fight. He chalks that up to anger and frustration, and notes that he has seen Diyar win in the UFC octagon. He thinks Uran Satybaldiev doesn't like striking and that Diyar is the better prospect. He is not fully confident but goes with Diyar.

"I'm going to pick Dr. here. I'm chalking up my Hitittable loser bum notes to just an angry in the- moment. He lost and people were at me like crazy. He's going to be the pick because I have at least seen him win."

We Want Picks

Big Brady Expert Lean picked Aug 21, 2025 (2 days before fight)

Diyar Nurgozhay

Big Brady picks Diyar Nurgozhay as an underdog despite concerns about his weight miss and poor performance in his last fight. He acknowledges Nurgozhay has solid striking, a nasty headkick, and takedown upside, and notes that Satybaldiev can be taken down and controlled. However, he is not betting on the fight due to Nurgozhay's weight miss and the line movement. He predicts a decision win for Nurgozhay.

Nurgozhay by decision; opened at +210 now +110; won't be touching it

"I'll pick him as an underdog. I'm not sure if he's going to stay an underdog much longer... I'll take Nurg to win this fight by decision."

DFS by the Numbers

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Aug 21, 2025 (2 days before fight)

Diyar Nurgozhay

The host believes there is recency bias against Nurgozhay, who did not look himself last time. He expects Nurgozhay to utilize his grapple-heavy approach and stay away from Satybaldiev's aggressive striking, as Satybaldiev does not have a great game off his back. The host predicts Nurgozhay will keep the fight on the ground and win on the scorecards.

"I think there's a ton of recency bias here on the negi side who I do not think looked himself at all last time against Brenesen Hedo."

MMA Lock of the Night

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Aug 22, 2025 (1 day before fight)

Uran Satybaldiev

The MMA Guru picks Uran Satybaldiev based on his performance against Martin Buday on short notice, which he now views as decent in hindsight. He notes that Satybaldiev is more fluid on the back foot and flows better in striking compared to Diyar Nurgozhay, who he describes as slow, plodding forward with a noticeable tick. He also mentions that Satybaldiev has faced better competition on the regional scene and doesn't expect either fighter to outgrapple the other significantly.

"I'm going to go with Uran Sati Baldv. I actually think his performance against Martin Bedet... in hindsight, I thought that's pretty good."
