UFC Fight Night 198: Tucker Lutz vs. Pat Sabatini
‘Top Gun’ is an elite striker and decent enough wrestler to cause Sabatini problems. Despite his opponent being a world-class grappler, he should be able to hold his own against him. However, his striking should give him an upper hand over Sabatini. Lutz landed 99 significant strikes in his first fight in the UFC. And also had three takedowns.

Sabatini, no doubt, is one of the best in the division when it comes to wrestling. But he wasn’t convincing in his last fight. Despite getting a submission win, Emmers had him reeling and made the mistake of grappling with him. While sprawling on the ground after Emmers got the knockdown, Sabatini locked in a heel hook, which ended the fight. But his striking doesn’t look to be on his opponent’s level and that can be the difference-maker.
