Bo Nickal vs Paul Craig Fight Preview
Bo Nickal is set to face off against Paul Craig at UFC 309 on Saturday, November 16th. Our Bo Nickal vs Paul Craig betting analysis can help you get a better understanding of how these teams will fare in this encounter.
Bo Nickal Analysis: Quite a capable wrestler
Bo Nickal has an undefeated record of 6 wins, 0 losses, and 0 draws. At 28 years old, he weighs 185 pounds and stands 6 feet 1 inch tall, with a reach of 76 inches. As a southpaw, he excels in wrestling, averaging 7.46 takedowns per bout. He successfully completes 50% of his takedown attempts and defends against 15% of his opponents’ takedowns.
- In his most recent match, Nickal faced Cody Brundage and won by rear naked choke in the 2nd round.
- During that fight, Brundage managed to land 33 out of 41 strikes, while Nickal had a more impressive performance, landing 45 out of 59 strikes.
Movement will be key for Nickal, as his previous UFC fight results show he is more adept on takedowns and ground play rather than on his feet, especially against experienced opponents.
Paul Craig Analysis: Hoping to bounce back
“Bearjew” stands at 6 feet 3 inches tall and weighs 185 pounds. This orthodox fighter has a professional record of 17 wins, 8 losses, and 1 draw, plus a reach of 76 inches. In his most recent fight, Craig faced Caio Borralho but unfortunately lost after being hit by a punch in the second round.
- Borralho was highly effective, landing 97% of his significant strikes from a distance, while Craig managed to connect on 100% of his significant strikes attempted from the same range.
- Overall, Craig landed 45% of his significant strikes, successfully hitting 22 out of 48 attempts.
Craig’s main weakness is his lack of accuracy on strikes, which normally forces him into a bad position. Fast fighters can easily punish this, with Nickal most likely looking to bring the big man into the ground as soon as he sees a missed punch.
