"UFC Austin: Dariush vs. Tsarukyan - Predictions, Weigh-in Results, and Betting Value"

The upcoming UFC Austin event will feature a lightweight main event between Beneil Dariush and Arman Tsarukyan, with serious title implications for early 2024 and beyond. Dariush, who had an impressive eight-fight win streak, suffered a first-round technical knockout loss to Charles Oliveira in his last fight. Tsarukyan, on the other hand, is a bright prospect with a 7-1 run and a technical knockout win over Joaquim Silva in his last fight. Both fighters rely on their wrestling, but Tsarukyan's youth and skill set may give him the edge. In the co-main event, Bobby Green will face Jalin Turner, who stepped in as a late replacement for Dan Hooker. Green is coming off back-to-back victories, including a 33-second knockout win over Grant Dawson. Turner, who is nine years younger, has a size advantage but is taking the fight on short notice and may struggle with the weight cut. Green's confidence is high, and unless he makes a mistake early on, he is likely to keep the pressure on and secure a victory.

"Unveiling the Hidden Lightweight Contender: UFC Vegas 80 Recap"

Grant Dawson, an undefeated contender in the UFC, will face Bobby Green in the main event of UFC Vegas 80. Despite his impressive grappling skills and nine-fight win streak, Dawson remains relatively unknown to many fight fans. While his striking is not his strongest suit, Dawson's power and ability to mix in kicks have allowed him to hold his own on the feet. His wrestling is a standout aspect of his game, as he excels in chain wrestling and has a knack for turning bad positions into successful takedowns. In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Dawson's focus is on taking the back and securing submissions, with the rear naked choke being his go-to finish. However, his reliance on the body triangle can be physically draining, and he has shown signs of fatigue in longer fights. The upcoming bout against Green will be a test for Dawson to showcase his skills and potentially expose any weaknesses.
