Trevin Jones vs Saidyokub Kakhramonov Prediction:
Saidyokub Kakhramonov is a natural wrestler. So he certainly has the upper hand in the ground game. When he gets on top he has a pretty aggressive game. On the feet, Saidyokub puts a lot of power into every strike and his raw power complements that style. Coming from a wrestling background he is not naturally a striker but the striking is getting better with every following fight.
Trevin on the other hand is a southpaw which makes his right hand dominant. He mostly throws singular strikes with power and lacks in volume. He also has a variety of leg kicks inside his arsenal which might be a good weapon against Saidyokub as he doesn’t check leg kicks.
Trevin is certainly the inferior wrestler here. However, he is quick in getting out of complicated positions. So, it is safe to say that he won’t let Saidyokub impose his style on Him. Trevin would be able to get on top of Kakhramonov and come away with the victory.
