UFC Fight Night: Garcia vs. Onama: Prediction<\/p>\n
I predict a TKO\/KO finish for Garcia in this featherweight battle because he\u2019s the better striker and more experienced fighter than Onama. The output and volume of Garcia could overwhelm Onama into a stoppage victory.<\/p>\n
Garcia does a great job of utilizing his full length against his opponents, and he\u2019ll have the height, reach, and leg reach advantages again in this bout. His best attack is the one-two punch combination he throws when he lunges forward.<\/p>\n
This combination catches his opponents off guard. Also, he has a great oblique kick that targets his opponent\u2019s legs. Lastly, Garcia likes to press his opponents on the back foot while throwing his striking combinations.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Onama relies on his punching power because, undoubtedly, he has the one-punch knockout power. He also has very capable grappling skills, evident when he took down Giga Chikadze multiple times and controlled him in his previous fight.<\/p>\n
But Garcia has tremendous takedown defense, and I think he\u2019ll successfully defend the takedowns to keep the fight on the feet. Once he rocks Onama with his combinations, Garcia will surely go for a TKO\/KO finish.<\/p>\n

David Onama\u2019s Recent Fight Results<\/p>\n
Onama was an undefeated prospect when he joined the UFC in October 2021. But in his debut fight in the promotion, he suffered a decision loss to Mason Jones. Following that setback, he won six of his last seven fights.<\/p>\n
During this run, he has scored wins over Gabriel Benitez, Garrett Armfield, Gabriel Santos, Jonathan Pearce, Roberto Romero, and, most recently, Chikadze. His lone defeat in this stretch was courtesy of Nate Landwehr.<\/p>\n
