Khabib retired undefeated and became a legend. Now his cousin Umar wants to carve his own path to greatness in the bantamweight division. He faces Mario Bautista at UFC 321 in Abu Dhabi on Saturday. This Umar Nurmagomedov vs Mario Bautista matchup features two fighters who simply refuse to quit, though their styles couldn&rsquo;t be more different.<\/p><p>Nurmagomedov stands 5&rsquo;8&Prime; with a 69 inch reach and owns an 18-1 record at just 29 years old. He lands 4.38 significant strikes per minute with excellent 57% accuracy while absorbing only 2.15 strikes. His wrestling dominates with 3.26 takedowns per fight at 39% accuracy and rock-solid 78% takedown defense. <\/p><p>Bautista matches the reach at 69 inches but stands slightly taller at 5&rsquo;9&Prime; with a <a href=\"http:\/\/ufcstats.com\/fighter-details\/bc711b6dd95c1af6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>16-2<\/a> record. He throws significantly more volume at 6.13 strikes per minute but with lower 49% accuracy. He absorbs way more damage at 4.45 strikes per minute with just 55% defense. His wrestling numbers show 1.67 takedowns per fight at 33% accuracy with concerning 67% takedown defense. That gap in defensive wrestling could be the story of this fight.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Umar Nurmagomedov vs Mario Bautista Predictions And Picks<\/h2><p>Nurmagomedov&rsquo;s technical game should overwhelm Bautista from the opening bell. The Dagestani uses kicks and straight punches to set up his wrestling entries. When Bautista presses forward with his wild volume, he can shoot underneath and drag him down. That&rsquo;s the pattern all night. Once grounded, Bautista can survive but won&rsquo;t escape. The Dagestani rides position, lands controlled strikes, and stacks minutes of cage control. The striking exchanges favor Nurmagomedov too.<\/p><p>Bautista needs chaos and volume from the opening bell. He must keep the fight standing at all costs by staying mobile and keeping his hips back. His 6.13 strikes per minute could overwhelm if he maintains that pace without gassing. Stuff the early takedowns to break Umar&rsquo;s confidence. Make this a brawl instead of a technical chess match.&nbsp;<\/p><p>If we bet on the fight, we are going with <strong>Umar Nurmagomedov to win via unanimous decision.<\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Umar Nurmagomedov vs Mario Bautista MMA Betting Odds<\/h2><p>According to<a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-FanDuel-sports-us-en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'> FanDuel<\/a>, <strong>Umar Nurmagomedov enters as a massive <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-FanDuel-sports-us-en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>-650 <\/a>favorite<\/strong>.
