Prediction: Michal Oleksiejczuk via TKO Oleksiejczuk doesn’t waste time feeling things out—he comes forward immediately, cutting off the cage and forcing his opponents into exchanges where he can capitalize. Dumas, on the other hand, is most comfortable when he has space to work at range. He likes to pick his…

The first time it really stood out was back in 2021 against Douglas Silva de Andrade—he showed a special level of composure, awareness,…
