Winner: Kennedy Nzechukwu
Confidence Score: 75Kennedy Nzechukwu appears to have several advantages going into this fight against Lukasz Brzeski. Firstly, looking at recent form and fight history, Brzeski is coming off a series of losses, with no wins in his last five fights. This streak includes three knockout losses, highlighting possible vulnerabilities in his striking defense or chin durability. On the other hand, Nzechukwu has a slightly better recent record and possesses a notable striking power with 8 KO wins.
Kennedy's significant reach advantage (83 inches compared to Brzeski's 78 inches) will likely allow him to control the striking exchanges, keeping Brzeski at distance and enhancing his ability to land strikes before Brzeski can retaliate effectively. Nzechukwu's experience in the UFC since 2017 and his defensive acumen in the takedown department (81% defense) further strengthen his position against Brzeski, who has shown insufficient defensive capabilities, particularly against takedowns.
Overall, while both fighters have similar general capabilities, Nzechukwu's reach, striking power, and Brzeski's recent losing streak suggest Kennedy has a more probable path to victory, either through controlling range and outmatching Brzeski on the feet or capitalizing on defensive lapses. The confidence score is 75, reflecting these advantages and the recent trajectory of both fighters' careers.
