UFC 314 Odds Favor Nikita Krylov
It’s been nearly two years since Nikita Krylov fought the last time. It was his own decision to take a break as in the past, he was fighting three times or more per year. At the age of 33, “The Miner” seems to be ready to take his career to the next level.

Krylov is 30-9 overall with 28 finishes – 12 by KO/TKO and 16 by submission. He won his last three fights, each by a different method.
When it comes to his losses, the last of those happened in 2022 when Paul Craig out-grappled him and won by submission. He lost five more times by the same method, while he also has one loss by TKO, which happened on his UFC debut against Soa Palelei.
Dominick Reyes Ready for War
Dominick Reyes is 14-4 overall and is hoping to get back into the championship conversation. He fought twice for the title already, the first of which was against Jon Jones in 2020. He lost by decision in a very close fight that many believed he won.
The same year, he also fought Jan Blachowicz by a TKO. Then, another two losses followed, each by a KO – to Jiri Prochazka and Ryan Spann.
But then, after taking a two-year break from fighting, The Devastator came back with a KO win over Dustin Jacoby last June. Then, in December, he beat Antony Smith by a TKO. If he wins again by the KO/TKO, we could see him get another shot at the title.
Nikita Krylov vs. Dominick Reyes Prediction
This is going to be a real war, with both fighters expected to land 50+ significant strikes. The winner of the fight will be the one who lands more devastating kicks and punches. So, who will it be?
Well, Reyes didn’t get his nickname – The Devastator – by accident. He’s got such power that we think he’s going to devastate Krylov and beat him either by a KO/TKO or unanimous decision.
Pick: Dominick Reyes
