Pre-fight analysis — how we saw it going in
Case for Gautier
Gautier is unbeaten in the UFC at 5-0 since his March 2025 debut, with four finishes including a second-round TKO of Ozzy Diaz in May 2026; his only judges' decision in that stretch came over Andrey Pulyaev. At 24 years old with a 206 cm reach, he is the clear physical and experience-curve outlier on this card.
Case for Kopylov
Kopylov is a decade-long veteran southpaw who has alternated momentum — back-to-back decision losses to Gregory Rodrigues and Paulo Costa in 2025 were followed by a rebound decision over Marco Tulio in May 2026. His profile-level metrics (4.54 significant strikes landed per minute, 89 percent takedown defense) back a dense kicking-and-left-hand attack, and he brings the far deeper UFC track record into this fight.
What We Were Watching For
- Whether Gautier's size and reach advantage lets him strike from outside Kopylov's kicking range.
- Kopylov's decade of southpaw experience against a live finishing threat ten years his junior.
- Whether Gautier can be taken past a first-round finish for the first time since his UFC debut.
- Kopylov's response if hurt early, after his last two losses came by decision rather than stoppage.

Picked: Ateba Gautier · Dec
Fight result: Roman Kopylov · KO/TKO
He says Kopylov's low output can leave Gautier chances to pick shots from range; Gautier has size and reach, good boxing, and careful defense. He predicts a Gautier decision if Kopylov maintains his usual pace, while saying more output could change his view and make him favor Kopylov.
- His pick depends on Kopylov remaining near his usual low output.
“I think he's going to win this by a decision.”
* If Kopylov raises his output, the analyst says he thinks Kopylov will win.
