Published:

By: Ryan Wohl

Kaan Ofli takes on Yizha in a three-round Featherweight contest in the final bout of the UFC 325 Early Prelims. Yizha is 1-2 in the UFC but is coming off a victory against Westin Wilson. Ofli also scored a finish in his previous fight when he fought Ricardo Ramos. On this card, Ofli is the third Australian fighter competing. The UFC 325 Early Prelims begin at 5:00 p.m. ET on Paramount+.

Check out my best bet for Kaan Ofli vs. Yizha on the Early Prelims at UFC 325.

Fight to Not Go the Distance (+140)

In this fight, both fighters are 5’7″, but Yizha has a five-inch reach advantage (71″ vs. 66″). Yizha lands more significant strikes per minute (2.97 vs. 1.79) while landing more takedowns (3.51 vs. 0.61) per 15 minutes. Ofli is good defensively, with a 60 percent defensive rate on the feet.

In this fight, Ofli is a +195 underdog while Yizha is the favorite at -238 on DraftKings Sportsbook. Three of Yizha’s last four victories have come by finish. Ofli has only gone to the judges’ scorecards once in his last six contests. With that said, it is best to take this fight at +140 to avoid going the distance. Yizha and Ofli combine for 29 finishes in their MMA careers.
