UFC Prediction: Who Will Win Spivac vs. Delija?
For this fight, I will be looking for it to end by KO/TKO. While Delija has not been in the UFC long, both of his UFC fights have ended by KO/TKO. As for Spivac, he has seen six of his last 10 UFC fights end by KO/TKO.
There is a chance that Spivac could look to grapple, as Delija has not had to deal with this in the UFC. That being said, Spivac has only seen three UFC fights end by submission. For that reason, backing this fight to end by KO/TKO is my best bet at -165 odds.
