Before this, Dawodu was on a six-fight win streak after losing his UFC debut by submission after just 39 seconds.

Mike Trizano

Trizano upset the odds in his last fight against L’udovit Klein, closing as a +235 underdog. Despite the unanimous decision victory, 11 out of 14 major media outlet picks had the fight for Klein.

The Ultimate Fighter 27 winner Trizano beat fellow TUF competitor Luis Pena in his second UFC fight, before losing by rear-naked choke to Grant Dawson.

How they match up

Dawodu is the shorter man at 5”8, although he will have a 2-inch reach advantage over Trizano. Trizano is 5”11 with a reach of 71”.

In his UFC career, Dawodu has landed an average of 4.72 significant strikes per minute, compared to Trizano’s 3.22.

Both men are 30 years old. Dawodu has a higher finish rate of 59% to Trizano’s 34%.

Reasons to watch

Both fighters come from a kickboxing background, so this one should be an exciting fight on the feet. Trizano has mixed in the grappling occasionally in his UFC career, while Dawodu has never shot for a takedown since joining the UFC.

The stakes

Either fighter could break into the Top 15 with a victory. Added to his upset over Klein, Trizano beating Dawodu would likely bring a ranked opponent next.

Dawodu’s loss to top prospect Mosvar Evloev won’t tarnish his record too much. A convincing victory over Trizano and “Mean” Hakeem can expect a ranked opponent too.

Trizano told The AllStar that securing a finish would all but guarantee a Top 15 matchup in his next fight.
