Pat Sabatini
Win Home
1.15
Pat Sabatini enters this matchup as a substantial favorite for compelling reasons. His elite grappling pedigree sets him apart, boasting a BJJ black belt and wrestling foundation that's translated into 9 career submission wins. Sabatini's UFC record reveals tactical brilliance in dragging fights to his domain, where he averages over 3 takedowns per 15 minutes at a 50% accuracy rate. Against Lewis – whose wrestling credentials include NCAA accolades but lack MMA seasoning – Sabatini's mat expertise should dominate.
Lewis's 4.75 underdog status reflects value concerns beyond his collegiate pedigree. His 3-year UFC absence creates ring rust questions, while Sabatini actively refined skills against top-20 competition during that period. Lewis's striking defense (53% significant strike absorption rate) also looks vulnerable against Sabatini's improving standup, which effectively sets up his takedown entries.
The odds imply just 21% win probability for Lewis, but our projection places his realistic chances below 15% given stylistic disadvantages. Sabatini's 1.20 moneyline offers positive expected value when accounting for his superior fight IQ, durability, and path to victory. While heavyweight MMA sees frequent upsets, featherweight grappling specialists like Sabatini typically justify such heavy favoritism against one-dimensional opponents.
