Movsar Evolev Can Improve To 3-0 In UFC With Victory
4 years agoMovsar Evolev (12-0) has impressed so far in the UFC, winning both of his bouts in 2019. The Russian star averages a very high five takedowns per contest along with a 100% takedown defense. It's obvious that Evolev holds to the Russian standard of superior wrestling. His strike rate isn't that bad for a wrestler, holding onto a 3.33 significant-strikes-per-minute rate. Fifty-eight percent of his striking occurs on the ground, giving him a 64% striking accuracy. So far on the DraftKings scoring scale, he's scored 83 points and 85.5 points, respectively. His salary for Saturday is $9,100. Evolev might be worth the gamble Saturday night, as he's one of those fighters who can control the pace. Not scoring a finish is a red flag, but both performances have been for 80-plus points, which might make him a go for you.
