Command Analysis

Abdulrakhman Yakhyaev

Current form

So far, for Abdul-Rahman Yahyaev, everything in the UFC is developing as confidently as possible, without failures. Two fights, two wins, and both in his favorite style: choke techniques from behind. First, he defeated Brandson Ribeiro, then he dealt with Raffaele Cerquiera just as coolly. The opponents, to put it bluntly, are not from the elite, and it is important to take this into account, but the fact remains that a finish is a finish, and the UFC does not ask who exactly you framed it against. 25—year-old Yahyaev continues to remain undefeated in his professional career: nine wins, three of them by knockout, one by points and five submissives.

His base is serious, his versatility is already visible, and he is not just a grappler, but a fighter who feels the moment. Before the UFC, he managed to take the Khan Fight belt, and in 2024 he added the Ares FC title to the collection, where he not only became a champion, but also defended the belt, after which he was quickly promoted to the world's strongest mixed martial arts league.

Julius Walker

Current form

Julius Walker approaches the fight with a much less even picture. Yes, he also won against Cerquiera, and by the decision of the judges, but this victory looks more like an island of calm in a stormy sea of problems. Before that, there was a split decision defeat by Alonzo Menifield in the UFC debut. After that, a knockout from Dustin Jacobi in February 2026. And here there is already a feeling that Walker has not yet fully adapted to the level and speed of the top organization. He is tall, physically strong, and knows how to fight to the last, but there is one systemic problem — he is read too often. He skips a lot, and it becomes a habit.

In the fight with Jacobi, the numbers spoke for themselves: 42 accurate hits in his direction against only seven in return. The 26-year-old American has ten wins (seven by knockout, one by decision, two by submission) and four defeats. Before the UFC, he was the Synergy FC champion, and in December 2024, he took the Peak Fighting belt and quickly found himself in the Dana White league.

Tip and bets

TipYahyaev's victory by submission

2.48

There is still one honest caveat with Yahyaev.: we still don't fully understand his real ceiling in the UFC. The selection is too fresh, the opponents are too convenient. But even with this in mind, he looks more collected, cleaner and more dangerous in the key phases of the battle. Walker doesn't make a very good impression yet. He holds on, endures, but misses a lot, and against a wrestler of this level, it's almost always a bad scenario. And the most important thing is that he has never been transferred to the UFC stalls, but the feeling that this gap will close soon is very stable.

Our betting tip is that Yahyaev will win by submission in 2.48
