Jorge Masvidal shares surprising prediction for Dricus Du Plessis vs Kamaru Usman at UFC Oklahoma City

Jorge Masvidal believes Kamaru Usman could make it look easy against Dricus Du Plessis at UFC Oklahoma City.

A pivotal middleweight bout is set to headline UFC Oklahoma City on Saturday, as Du Plessis takes on Usman, who's moving up in weight. Heading into the bout, Du Plessis is a -290 favorite while the former welterweight champion is a +215 underdog on FanDuel.

Although Usman is the betting underdog, Masvidal believes there is a clear path to victory for him, which is simply wrestling Du Plessis, as Khamzat Chimaev was able to do against the South African.

“I think if DDP didn't make the needed changes after the Khamzat fight, Usman could have a very easy night. Repeat and rinse, jab his way in there, hit some body shots, and find a way to get to the leg and tax DDP,†Masvidal said on UFC Paramount. “If DDP has improved in those gaps, which were massive, he can do some special stuff. He has some power; it's his weight class, he's a bigger guy, and I think he's much, much better on his feet. But, Usman is so damn good with his overall fighting and his IQ. I think he's one of the smartest guys in the cage. If Du Plessis hasn't made the leaps and bounds in the grappling department, it will be a bad night for him.â€

It's a surprise from Masvidal, as Usman is the betting underdog. And, he had a feud with Usman in the past, but he obviously respects Usman's skills, and he thinks he can beat Du Plessis in his new weight class.

Usman enters UFC Oklahoma City coming off a decision win over Joaquin Buckley in his return to welterweight after a majority decision loss to Khamzat Chimaev. The former welterweight champion is 21-4 as a pro and is looking to cement himself as a true title contender after UFC Oklahoma City.

Do you think Kamaru Usman can pull off the upset at UFC Oklahoma City?

Movsar Evloev warns Alexander Volkanovski: 'He hasn't beaten anyone like me'
Movsar
Evloev says he has pushed himself harder than ever ahead of his
first UFC title shot.

Evloev (20-0) is scheduled to challenge Alexander
Volkanovski (28-4) for the
Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight title at
UFC 333 on Oct. 24 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. Ahead of the
bout, the unbeaten Russian discussed how his preparations have
differed from previous training camps.

Movsar Evloev details toughest training camp ahead of Alexander
Volkanovski title fight at UFC 333

Evloev said he increased his workload across all aspects of
training to address any potential weaknesses. He believes that
preparation will help him showcase his abilities in Saturday's main
event.

“This preparation is different just because I pushed more than
ever,†Evloev said in a pre-fight interview. “And we did more of
everything to make sure we didn't miss anything. He hasn't beaten
anyone like me. There's many things that make me special, like
unique. And I'm about to show it Saturday.â€

Evloev has long been considered a leading featherweight contender,
with Volkanovski acknowledging him as the most deserving
challenger. However, Diego Lopes
received a title rematch against Volkanovski earlier this year
before Evloev earned his opportunity. The Russian's lack of UFC
finishes has fueled debate about his wait for a championship bout,
though the promotion has not established it as the reason for the
delay.
