‘The Dentist’ is 4-3 with 1 NC in the UFC. After finding himself on a three-fight losing streak in his first four UFC bouts, Darren rebounded and saved his career with four wins in five fights. Only losing to Edmen Shahbazyan in that time. Stewart now finds himself on a two-fight win streak with victories over Bevon Lewis and Deron Winn.

Maiki ‘Coconut Bombz’ Pitolo is 13-5 in his MMA career. Inside the UFC he has two fights, with one loss and one win. Pitolo came up short against Callan Potter in his UFC debut.

Pitolo v Stewart Fight Prediction
Whilst coming off an impressive win, a KO win over Charles Byrd isn’t exactly something that makes the news these days. Stewart, on the other hand, has shown great promise a name in the UFC’s welterweight division and came back from a three-fight skid to find his career’s highlight.
5.22 Strikes Landed/min. | 2.94 Strikes Landed/min.

Stewart is riding on momentum, and has looked sharp in his last fights. Even against Shahbazyan, he put up a great fight against the youngster, and barely lost (split-decision). Stewart has faced adversity and knows how to deal with it in the UFC. I think he gets the win this weekend.
Prediction: Darren Stewart (1.58) via unanimous decision.
