Pre-fight analysis — how we saw it going in
Case for Machado Garry
Garry's clearest route was to keep the fight long, use his footwork and kicks to make Prates reset, then score cleanly without getting trapped against the fence. His range management and takedown threat gave him ways to win minutes even when the Brazilian's power was present.
Case for Prates
Prates needed to turn the fight into a pocket battle and make Garry pay for every retreat. His power and pressure could change the fight with one clean connection, but he had to close distance without chasing into the taller fighter's counters.
What We Were Watching For
- Whether Prates could force Garry into sustained pocket exchanges.
- How Garry's kicks and footwork shaped the five-round pace.
- Whether Garry's late defensive wrestling held up under Prates' finishing push.
