Command Analysis
Ikram Aliskerov
Russian FederationCurrent form
Ikram Aliskerov is a real beast from Dagestan, a four—time world champion in combat sambo and a two-time European champion, with roots in judo that make him a nightmare on the carpet. He started his career in MMA in 2012, broke up the Bahrain Brave CF, but did not take the title there. This is his fourth fight in the UFC, and he's coming off a heavy first—round knockout loss to Robert Whittaker in June 2024, which ended a seven-game winning streak.
In that series, he took out Worley Alves by technical knockout in the first round, strangled Mario Filipe de Souza in the first round and knocked out Phil Howes by knockout also in the starting five. At the age of 32, Ikram has 15 wins — six knockouts, four decisions, five submissions — and two defeats, he is in 24th place in the middleweight rankings.
Interesting betting trends
The accuracy of Aliskerov's punches is a frightening 60%.
Aliskerov has seven first-round finishes in his career.
Andre Muniz
BrazilCurrent form
Andre Muniz is a Brazilian grappling master, former 2014 Bitetti Combat champion. He fought in local promotions like X-Fight MMA and Watch Out Combat Show, but he didn't take any more titles. He joined the UFC in 2019 and started with five wins in a row, but in February 2023, Brendan Allen strangled him in the third round. Then Paul Craig knocked him out in the second round by technical knockout.
Muniz returned in December 2023, snatching a split decision victory from Jung Yoon Park. At the age of 35, he has 24 wins — four knockouts, five decisions, as many as 15 submissions — and six defeats, he is in 23rd place in the division rankings.
Interesting betting trends
The accuracy of Muniz's punches is 50%, not bad, but not his main feature.

1.19Tip and bets
Aliskerov is just a monster. His titles in combat sambo — four world titles, two European titles — plus his judo record make him an immovable rock. Hitting accuracy of 60% is crazy, and his Dagestani wrestling is like trying to move a mountain. He even held out against Khamzat Chimaev in the regional, so his defense against takedowns is a steel wall. Defeat by Whittaker? Yes, it hurts, but Whittaker is an ex-champion, there's no question about that. The power and precision of the Calf make it a nightmare to stand on, it doesn't pull the rubber. Muniz is a magician on earth. Fifteen submissives in 24 wins is just a suffocating machine. His jiu-jitsu is world-class, and those first-round finishes show that he can grab a neck or an arm in seconds. But here's the problem: his wrestling is not at Aliskerov's level, and his striking, although decent, will not overshadow the 60% accuracy of his Calf. Defeats from Allen and Craig have shown that he is vulnerable against versatile guys who hold a fight in a stance or defend against submissives. It is worth choosing a bet on Aliskerov. His takedown defense is like a fortress, and his punches are too clear, too powerful. Muniz will hunt for the submissives, but Ikram will not let himself be dragged into this trap. Aliskerov will pour in with a killer punch and finish everything very quickly.
Our prediction is that Aliskerov will win in the first round in 2.15
