Justin Tafa vs. Tallison Teixeira UFC 312 Expert Selection, Prediction

Despite having matches like Jack Jenkins vs. Gabriel Santos, who is stuck on Prelims, UFC-Matchmakers can’t help himself when it comes to forcing us with low-level heavy weights on the midstar, but I’ll take off.

In Fighters’ Defense, both TAFA and TEIXEIRA are at least action-oriented heavyweight-so hopefully we can avoid any sloping parties.

Teixeira is one of the few Stefan Struve-Esque Tongues that will actually fight for a long time, but the Brazilian defense leaves much to be desired.

Apart from Teixeira’s head being naturally tense up like a tetherball due to his height, the 25-year-old prospect tends to hurry to follow fleeing enemies and hurry his successes.

For that reason, I choose TAFA to score knockout with a counter to the right hook in Round 1.
