Lightweight contenders Lando Vannata and Darrius Flowers are looking to return to the win column, as they are scheduled to face each other Saturday at UFC Vegas 115 at the Meta APEX in Las Vegas.

Vannata will be the betting favorite with -225 UFC odds, and Flowers, who’s on a three-fight losing streak, is going to be the +185 betting underdog.

UFC Vegas 115: Lando Vannata vs. Darrius Flowers: Prediction

I predict a unanimous decision win for Vannata because he’s the better grappler. Vannata’s wrestling background can be used to neutralize the striking and power of Flowers because he has a one-punch knockout ability.

Both are coming off a long layoff from their most recent bouts inside the octagon, but I think the wrestling of Vannata will be enough to hold off Flowers, who has been stopped by submission before, which says a lot about his weakness in the grappling department.

Flowers was a product of Dana White’s Contende Series, where he submitted Amiran Gogoladze to secure a UFC contract. However, he’s still winless in three bouts inside the octagon, with losses to Jake Matthews, Michael Johnson, and Evan Elder.
