Mix vs. Wiklacz Pick, Prediction

Former Bellator champion Patchy Mix dropped an extremely underwhelming decision to Mario Bautista as a -174 underdog in his UFC debut, and will now face former KSW champion Jakub Wiklacz – as an even more significant favorite – in his sophomore outing.

Mix is the better athlete – and wrestler – but Wiklacz has a jiu-jitsu black belt, and has recorded 10 of 16 career wins by submission; I’d expect Mix to gain top position in the fight, but anticipate that Wiklacz will survive on bottom and potentially set up opportunities to lock in a triangle.

This is also a matchup where Mix could have a rare, clear striking advantage. Still, Wiklacz, like Mix, has extensive fight-round experience for a UFC debutant – as a champion of a high-level regional promotion – and I’d expect him to hang tough until the final bell.

I project value both on Mix’s moneyline (projected -369; bet to -330) and for the fight to reach a decision (projected -149, listed -120). Moreover, I show correlated value on Mix to win by decision (projected +119, listed +175), which I would bet down to +130.

Projection: Patchy Mix (78.7%)

Sean’s Pick:

  • Patchy Mix wins by Decision (+175, 0.25u) at FanDuel; bet to +130
