Islam Makhachev has finished 13 opponents by submission and five by knockout across a career that now stretches to 28-1. He defends the welterweight title against Ian Machado Garry in the main event of UFC 330 in Philadelphia. Our Islam Makhachev vs Ian Machado Garry match prediction follows the champion's signature winning style..
The Dagestani carries a 16-fight winning streak into the cage, level with Anderson Silva's UFC record. He took the belt from Jack Della Maddalena over five rounds in November. Renato Moicano and Dustin Poirier were both submitted in his two lightweight title fights before that. But what's notable is that Makhachev averages 3.1 takedowns per 15 minutes, as we're betting that he wins this on the floor or the cards.
Meanwhile, The Future arrives at 17-1 and has never been finished in his career. 10 wins from 11 Octagon appearances, the latest a decision over Belal Muhammad in Doha, have carried him to a first title shot. Only three of his 10 wins ended inside the distance, and the last was in 2023.
Garry has promised a fourth-round finish and moved to Brazil to train with Demian Maia. The Future has stopped only three men in the UFC, and nobody has yet stopped him.

Our Islam Makhachev vs Ian Machado Garry Prediction
13 submissions against five knockouts tell you how Makhachev finishes fights. His last two lightweight title defences ended with Moicano and Poirier tapping, and he took the welterweight belt from Della Maddalena on the cards.
The Future has never been finished by anyone, which makes a knockout the least likely route available here. Only three of his 10 Octagon wins came inside the distance. Makhachev's takedown rate points the same way. Hence, our Islam Makhachev vs Ian Machado Garry match prediction is Islam Makhachev to win by submission or decision.
