Chidi Njokuani vs Dusko Todorovic Prediction: Can Chidi Njokuani Get The Job Done at UFC Fight Night?
This Saturday we see the return of one of the UFCs biggest and brightest prospects, with Chidi Njokuani returning into the fray and our viewing pleasure against the Darkhorse Dusko Todorovic. What seems fairly binary on paper, it is important to note regardless is that this will be your standard Striker vs Grappler affair. Chidi implements a very high-level acumen of Muay Thai, really utilizing teeps and trips to neutralize incomers forward assaults and then subsequently flipping everything on its axis. Dusko does one thing and one thing only: wrestle ride you until certain oblivion or he can find a quick submission choke.
Let's dive into the prediction, pick, and the odds for UFC Fight Night Chidi Njokuani vs Dusko Todorovic.
UFC Fight Night Prediction
Not pretty or savvy by any means it has been getting the job done regardless, but I expect Duskos wrestling pedigree to be stifled in large part due to the sheer frame of Chidi as well as the preemptive knowledge that that is all he's going to bring to the table. Now that all the disclaimers have been gone over who wins this fight when it's all said and done. On one hand, you have a rangy kickboxer who's starting to really develop his power and is on the come-up. On the other, you have Dusko Todorovic. Although not all fights are created equal in the UFC, I fear this contest will be as one-sided as they come.
Chidi is simply the superior athlete with the superior technical process, factors that Dusko can not bully his way into a win like he has done previously but looked historically bad against to boot. Look for Chidi to feel out Tudorovic early and when he decides to shoot in with a blast double, get kneed violently into submission where he will then get finished with follow-up shots on the ground.
