Great cue from Yusuffs coaches. All that loading up was having him miss bog and often. Now we have a nice technical scrap. #UFCVegas23

Feel like some left uppercuts are there for Arnie… especially after he stings yusuff first

Allen and team has a good fight plan but he’s leaving himself open for submissions. If Yusuff commits to any submission he can finish the fight #UFCVegas23
