Winner: Calvin Kattar
Confidence Score: 85Calvin Kattar, ranked #10 at Featherweight, possesses a strong striking ability with 11 knockouts out of 23 wins. His solid takedown defense (72%) allows him to keep the fight standing, where he excels. Although Youssef Zalal has shown recent submission wins and improved grappling, the experience and striking power of Kattar give him an edge in this matchup. Kattar's proven track record against elite opponents alongside his position in the rankings solidify my prediction towards him.
