UFC 324: Sean O\u2019Malley vs. Song Yadong: Prediction<\/p>\n
I predict a TKO\/KO finish for O\u2019Malley against Song since he\u2019s very good at using all his reach and leg reach advantages when fighting another striker. Unlike his two previous fights with Merab Dvalishvili, O\u2019Malley won\u2019t have to worry about wrestling and takedowns.<\/p>\n
Aside from utilizing his physical attributes, O\u2019Malley is also a very good counterpuncher. With Song\u2019s forward pressure and aggressive style, the former UFC bantamweight king will be happy to welcome him and time a perfect counter whenever he overextends.<\/p>\n
Song has also struggled against other elite strikers in the division, as evidenced by his losses to Cory Sandhagen and Petr Yan. If his fight plan is to stand and trade with O\u2019Malley, he might get stopped, but if he decides to employ some grappling and wrestling, it will be a different story.<\/p>\n
Sean O\u2019Malley\u2019s Recent Fight Results<\/p>\n

Song Yadong\u2019s Recent Fight Results<\/p>\n
Song is a veteran UFC contender who has been with the promotion since 2017. In his past five matches, he scored wins against Ricky Simon, Chris Gutierrez, and Henry Cejudo. Meanwhile, he dropped his fights with Sandhagen and Yan.<\/p>\n
