Dolidze will make his return to the 185 lbs division of the UFC after having a short stint in the light-heavyweight division. He is a big middleweight with the size and the strength factor in his favor in the 185 lbs division. However, he loses those advantages at the 205 lbs division. So, it’s a wise move on his part to return to middleweight.
Giles, on the other hand, is on a 2-fight winning streak currently. After his first 2 career losses against Zak Cummings, and Gerald Meerschaert consecutively, both by submission, ‘The Problem’ has won a decision over James Krause and has finished Bevon Lewis in his last fight.
Here we take a look at the further detailed analysis and the prediction of the fight.
Trevin Giles and Roman Dolidze in numbers
Giles has a professional record of 13-2. He has finished 11 out of his 13 professional wins with 6 coming by T/KO, and 5 by submission. The Houston, Texas, native will make his 7 the appearance in the UFC against Dolidze.
‘The Caucasian‘ has an undefeated professional record of 8-0. He has finished 7 out of those fights with 4 coming by way of T/KO, and 3 by submission. The Georgian has taken this fight on short notice; however, that shouldn’t be much of a factor in the outcome.
Dolidze’s grappling is highly respected. He can manhandle his opponents in the ground with his superior strength and technique. Also, his submission pedigree supports his style.
Giles has been controlled on the ground and submitted before. His 2 losses against Cummings and Meerschaert, came in this manner as he was submitted in both contests. However, if he can exhaust Dolidze by using his superior cardio, he might get a win.
But Dolidze suits the blueprint to beat Giles perfectly. he should be able to make ‘The Problem‘ tired by wearing on him early and eventually securing a submission in the 3rd round.
Final Prediction: Roman ‘The Caucasian’ Dolidze by 3rd-round submission.
