This weekends prospect watch 👊 - UFC 296, Cage Warriors 165.
GM fight fans and welcome to this weekends prospect watch, this weekend is full of new talent on display with having both UFC 296 and Cage Warriors 165. so without further ramble lets get into it 👊
UFC 296
🏴Casey O’Neil vs Ariane Lipski🇧🇷

In the UFC 296 prelims spotlight, Scottish sensation Casey O'Neil is set to face former KSW champion Ariane Lipski. O'Neil (9-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) looks to bounce back from her first career loss to Jennifer Maia in March 2022. The 25-year-old, who holds an impressive record with four UFC wins, had to withdraw from her last scheduled bout against Viviane Araujo due to injury 🤕
On the other side, Lipski (15-8 MMA, 4-5 UFC) is riding a two-fight winning streak after overcoming a challenging phase in her UFC career. With victories over JJ Aldrich and Melissa Gatto, Lipski aims to continue her positive momentum.
Analyzing the matchup, O'Neil's dynamic striking and ability to apply pressure could be pivotal. Lipski has shown vulnerability to pressure in past fights. Additionally, O'Neil's ground game, especially if she secures top position, could exploit weaknesses in Lipski's defensive wrestling, as seen in her previous bouts 🤼
Given O'Neil's skill set and considering she's still in her recovery phase from knee injuries, our crystal ball predicts a victory for Casey O'Neil by first-round KO. 🔮
CAGE WARRIORS 165
🇮🇩Ronal Siahaan vs Andrew Cabrera🇺🇸

In the Cage Warriors 165 prelims, there's an intriguing flyweight clash between Ronal Siahaan and Andrew Cabrera. Siahaan, a 26-year-old Indonesian flyweight with a record of 7-1 (5 knockouts), hails from Bogor, Indonesia. While primarily competing in the Indonesian regional scene, he gained exposure in the UFC's "Road to UFC" tournament in May.
On the opposing side is American fighter Andrew Cabrera, boasting an undefeated record of 5-0 with an impressive finishing rate of 4 submissions. Both fighters are set to make their Cage Warriors debut in what promises to be an engaging bout 🔥
Cabrera is likely to aim for the ground to test Siahaan's uncharted ground game, while Siahaan will likely seek to keep the fight standing, looking to secure his 6th career knockout on the big stage.
In our prediction, we see this one leaning in favor of Andrew Cabrera, with his grappling skills ultimately prevailing. 🔮
CAGE WARRIORS 165
🇺🇸Anthony Orozco vs Benjamin Orozco🇺🇸

In the welterweight division at Cage Warriors 165, there's a compelling matchup between Anthony Orozco (1-0) and Benjamin Orozco (2-0). Anthony Orozco, an American welterweight from San Diego, California, holds a professional record of 1-0, securing his lone pro win via knockout. With previous experience in San Diego's regional scenes and a 5-1 record at IMMAF in 2022, this will mark his second appearance with Cage Warriors.
His opponent, 27-year-old American welterweight Benjamin Orozco, boasts an undefeated amateur career and has continued that success into his professional journey with a 2-0 record, both wins coming by way of submissions. This bout will serve as Benjamin's promotional debut for Cage Warriors 👊
While Anthony Orozco brings valuable experience from his time at IMMAF and displays a well-rounded skill set with proficiency in striking and a wrestling background, Benjamin Orozco's striking abilities remain untested in a professional setting.
In our prediction, we foresee Anthony Orozco taking the victory, securing a knockout in the 2nd round. 🔮
