🔍 Breakdown: Reyes vs. Krylov
🔥 Dominick Reyes
After his infamous war with Jon Jones, Reyes hit a rough stretch of three straight knockout losses. But with back-to-back KO wins in 2024, “The Devastator” looks reborn. Training at Elevation Fight Team, Reyes now leans more on movement and patience, using his 82% takedown defense to keep things upright and unleash powerful counters.
- 💡 Key to victory: Maintain distance, use angles, and punish Krylov’s aggression with crisp counters.
🧨 Nikita Krylov
Krylov returns after a two-year layoff, but enters on a 3-fight win streak including a submission over Ryan Spann. A wildman early in his UFC run, Krylov has added layers to his game, blending in takedowns and improved decision-making. That said, he still takes risks — and against Reyes, that could be dangerous.
- 💡 Key to victory: Pressure Reyes early, mix in grappling, and avoid eating clean counters.
