Garry vs. Page Prediction: UFC 303 Betting Odds
Garry is coming off the toughest fight of his MMA career, a three-round split decision win over Geoff Neal ack in February at UFC Anaheim that improved his perfect pro record to 14-0. Page enjoyed a successful UFC debut at UFC 299, where he claimed a unanimous decision win over Kevin Holland to improve to 8-1 over his past nine fights.
In addition to owning the No. 7 spot on the UFC welterweight rankings, Garry also leads the way on the UFC 303 odds as a -140 favourite. Listed as the No. 14 contender in the UFC welterweight division in the wake of his victory over Holland, Page trails as a +115 underdog, while the odds of this scrap going a full three rounds are pegged at -175.
Ian Machado Garry Odds
Ian Machado Garry has taken the MMA world by storm since making his pro debut in 2019. The 26-year-old climbed to the top of the Cage Warriors welterweight division while starting his career with seven straight wins including five finishes, and two inside five minutes. “The Future” turned heads in his subsequent UFC debut, tallying a first-round KO victory over Jordan Williams at UFC 268 and has also proven his ability to go the distance by getting the nod from the judges in four of his past six octagon appearances. Garry holds a black belt in judo and has demonstrated skill both on his feet and on the mat. Overall, seven of his 14 career victories have come by KO or TKO. He also has one victory by submission to his credit and his ability to change levels could be key against Page, who enjoys a massive five-inch reach advantage.
Michael Page Odds
A longtime Bellator championship contender, Michael Page made his UFC debut with his victory over Kevin Holland just three months ago. The move comes in the wake of the 37-year-old’s second failed bid for the Bellator welterweight crown in a heartbreaking five-round split-decision loss to Logan Storley at Bellator 281 in May 2022. However, that defeat is the only blemish on “Venom’s” pro MMA record over the past five years. While Page has fought just three times since the start of 2022, his limited activity has not dampened his reputation as a “can crusher”. Indeed, Page demonstrated his ability to inflict serious damage on an opponent in his final Bellator appearance, ending Goiti Yamauchi’s night with a devastating leg kick that left the Brazilian with a ruptured patella tendon.
Garry vs. Page UFC 303 Prediction
Overall, Page has seen four of his past six fights go the distance, but the 37-year-old’s punching power should not be underrated. Sporting an impressive wingspan and the potential to finish with his fists or legs, Page represents the greatest threat that Garry has faced as a pro, and offers great value to produce the first upset of the night on Saturday.
Prediction: Michael Page (+140)
