Our Lewis vs Diniz betting analysis is full of important information to help you on your betting adventures!
Derrick Lewis Analysis: Knockout Power and Resilience
Knockout ability is really what UFC veteran Derrick Lewis relies on to win fights. Now 39, Lewis is still a formidable striker as he lands 50% of his significant strikes. In his last win over Rodrigo Nascimento, Lewis showed his durable chin and powerful finishing ability as he landed 47 of 81 total strikes to earn the knockout in Round 3. Check out the astonishing stats of Lewis; he emphasizes power strikes, mostly to the head, where he landed 54% in his previous fight.
- While Lewis does have some skills in grappling, at 0.57 takedowns per round, he rarely controls opponents via wrestling. Instead, he uses his great takedown defense at 52% to keep fights standing, where he could finish with his knockout potential.
- In a fight with an opponent like Diniz, Lewis will be trying to turn this into a striking affair by using his raw power for a finish.
Jhonata Diniz Analysis: Striking Precision and Momentum
Jhonata Diniz enters this bout undefeated, demonstrating a good balance between precision and volume in his striking. While landing 4.09 significant strikes per minute at an accuracy of 53%, Diniz will keep a very high pace that Lewis-who is more methodical will find hard to keep up with. With that said, Diniz has shown that it is rather tough to land a punch clean on him with 55% significant strike defense, which in turn will be the most essential factor against such a big hitter as Lewis.
- Although grappling isn’t the dominant part of his Diniz style, his 70% takedown defense might allow him to keep the fight on the feet, where he’s most comfortable.
- Even though he does not average high takedown attempts himself, it could be the tactical striking which might help Diniz avoid Lewis’s power shots, all while slowly racking up damage. This should be one of the most interesting fights of the UFC card this weekend.
