Darya Zheleznyakova vs. Alice Pereira prediction, odds, pick for UFC Vegas 122

The upcoming UFC Vegas 122 event will feature a bantamweight bout between Darya Zheleznyakova and Alice Pereira. Zheleznyakova, the No. 14-ranked bantamweight, comes into the fight with a record of 10-3, while Pereira is a 6-1 underdog. Pereira, who is 20 years old, is the youngest woman in UFC history and is coming off a second-round knockout of Hailey Cowan, earning her a performance bonus.

Zheleznyakova, on the other hand, is making her third UFC appearance and has a kickboxing background. Both fighters have distinct styles and strengths that could give them an edge in the matchup. Zheleznyakova's experience, distance control, and knockout power could give her an advantage, while Pereira's length, diverse striking, and finishing ability make her a formidable opponent.

Ultimately, the prediction is that Alice Pereira will win the fight by decision, leveraging her length and striking variety to outmaneuver Zheleznyakova.
