A three-fight losing streak almost all but seals up your future in the UFC. When you have lost all three fights by finish, one more loss could easily be your final fight in the UFC. Ion Cutelaba (16-9-1) will look to rebound from three finishing losses when he battles Tanner Boser, who is moving down to the light heavyweight division. DraftKings sees Cutelaba as the favorite, with a salary of $8,400. Throughout his UFC career (14 bouts), he averages 57.1 fantasy points per contest. Cutelaba now looks for his first win since UFC Fight Night 192.

The rough road continues for Ion Cutelaba after suffering a second-round TKO stoppage loss in Saturday's UFC Fight Night main event. After a last-second change to the card, Cutelaba and Kennedy Nzechukwu had their matchup bumped up. Though, it took only six minutes for Cutelaba to fall victim again to a TKO stoppage. He has now only secured one victory in his last seven bouts. The UFC may not cut him, but it would not be a surprise if he is offered as a stepping stone for a hot, upcoming star in his next matchup.

Looking to avoid a three-fight losing streak in which he has suffered back-to-back first-round submission losses, Ion Cutelaba (16-8-1) will face off against Kennedy Nzechukwu on Saturday's main card of action. Overall, the last couple of years have been tough on Cutelaba's record as he has a 1-4-1 mark over that time frame. DraftKings sees Cutelaba as the underdog here with a salary of $7,400. Throughout his UFC career, he averages 59.6 fantasy points per contest. With several knockouts under his belt, Nzechukwu could prove to be another difficult opponent for Cutelaba, as he typically gets caught being over-aggressive.

With only one win since 2019, Ion Cutelaba (16-7-1) will look to rebound from his most recent outing when he faces Johnny Walker in the main-card opener at light heavyweight on Saturday. A dangerous striker like his opponent, 12 of Cutelaba's 16 career wins have come by knockout/TKO. DraftKings sees Cutelaba as the sizeable favorite with a salary of $8,600. Throughout his UFC career, Cutelaba averages 63.5 fantasy points per contest. Cutelaba was caught in a submission while being aggressive in his last matchup, so look for him to be a bit more composed, which should work in his favor.
