UFC Fight Night: Shevchenko Vs. Carmouche 2 Predictions

6. Enrique Barzola Vs. Bobby Moffett

We've got an interesting scrap between two solid featherweights to open up this main card, as The Ultimate Fighter Season 2 winner, Enrique Barzola, takes on talented grappler, Bobby Moffett.

Despite being 5-2 in his last seven fights, Barzola really hasn't looked all that impressive during his career in the Octagon. All of his wins have come via decision, so while he's very good at controlling opponents along the cage and on the ground, he doesn't offer much of a submission or knockout threat.

Moffett, on the other hand, is a bit of a live wire when it comes to grappling exchanges. It would be inaccurate to call him a jiu-jitsu whiz (we'll save those accolades for the fighter on the next page), but he's always looking for submissions, especially in the scramble. Look for the 29-year old to attempt his favourite submission, the Brabo Choke, at some point if the fight hits the floor.

With Moffett being the more active fighter when it comes to looking for the finish and Barzola looking average at best, the American should earn himself a decision or submission victory.
