These events showcase both rising stars and established veterans looking to climb the rankings. Kansas City has become a regular stop for the promotion, with passionate Midwestern crowds creating an electric atmosphere. <\/p><p>This weekend, the Octagon returns to Kansas City with a welterweight clash that has fans buzzing. Ian Garry faces Carlos Prates in a main event that wasn&rsquo;t originally planned. Garry stepped in after Geoff Neal withdrew from his scheduled bout against Prates. The Irish fighter is looking to bounce back from his first career loss against Shavkat Rakhmonov in December, while Prates aims to continue his perfect 4-0 <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/mma\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>UFC<\/a> run. <\/p><p>Both men bring exciting styles to the cage. Garry comes with his technical striking and movement, and Prates with his aggressive forward pressure and devastating power. This contrast in approaches makes for an intriguing stylistic matchup that could deliver fireworks.<\/p><p>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/chael-sonnen-gives-massive-update-for-upcoming-tom-aspinall-fight-and-it-is-not-jon-jones\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Chael Sonnen Gives Massive Update For Upcoming Tom Aspinall Fight, And It Is Not Jon Jones!<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ian Garry vs. Carlos Prates UFC MMA Betting Odds<\/h2><p>The betting lines for this welterweight showdown are in. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}' rel=\"nofollow\">BetMGM<\/a>, the oddsmakers currently have Ian Machado Garry as a slight favorite at <strong>-135 <\/strong>($10 pays out $17.41), with Carlos Prates sitting as the underdog at <strong>+110<\/strong> ($10 pays out $21). These close odds reflect the competitive nature of the matchup despite Garry taking the fight on shorter notice.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" class=\"trk-cta-img\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Image\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}' rel=\"nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"486\" src=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/unnamed-2-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43535\" style=\"width:756px;height:auto\"><\/a><\/figure><p>What&rsquo;s interesting is how the betting market views Garry&rsquo;s chances despite his recent setback. Before losing to Rakhmonov, the Irishman was often a much heavier favorite in his bouts. The close line here shows respect for Prates&rsquo; skills and recent momentum.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ian Garry vs. Carlos Prates Predictions and Picks<\/h2><p>When breaking down this fight, the key factors favor Ian Garry despite the challenges. His refined footwork and counter striking ability should create problems for the forward-pressing Prates. The Brazilian powerhouse tends to accept strikes while moving forward. This is a risky proposition against someone with Garry&rsquo;s precision. Garry&rsquo;s experience against higher-level competition should also prove valuable, especially in a five-round affair where pace management becomes crucial.<\/p><p>Prates brings serious danger in the early rounds with his aggressive style and fight-ending power. If he can cut off the cage effectively and force Garry to exchange in the pocket, he could certainly score the upset. However, Garry&rsquo;s recent training at the legendary Chute Boxe academy in Brazil has likely sharpened his already impressive striking defense.<\/p><p>If we bet on the fight, it will be on <strong>Ian Garry to win the fight via submission in the later rounds<\/strong>.<\/p><p><strong>(Image Credit: Jim Dedmon &ndash; Imagn Images)<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Get to know the betting odds, prediction and picks about the UFC Kansas City main event featuring Ian Garry vs. Carlos Prates!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":43536,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[2728,1783,2588,4513],"tags":[1967,5359,5873],"class_list":["post-43502","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-betting","category-mma","category-prediction","category-ufc-predictions","tag-carlos-prates","tag-ian-garry","tag-ufc-kansas-city"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 -
