Francis Ngannou will attempt to become the first fighter to defeat Jairzinho Rozenstruik in a professional fight during UFC 249, having appeared to regain his footing in the UFC after back-to-back defeats.
Ngannou vs. Rozenstruik Betting Predictions:
Odds: Francis Ngannou (-270) vs. Jairzinho Rozenstruik (+230)
Ngannou, 33, has won his last three fights in succession and is backed by the bookmakers to follow up with a fourth on Saturday, though Rozenstruik—one year his junior—is no small fry.
The Surinamese star boasts a 10-0 record and knocked out Alistair Overeem and Andrei Arlovski—both of whom Ngannou has also finished—but may have met his match on this occasion.
Rozenstruik rode some fortune to beat Overeem late when they clashed in December 2019, but he leaves the kind of openings that should see Ngannou live up to his -270 (1.37) billing.
