  "account": "Jorge Masvidal predicts Movsar Evloev's relentless grappling will overpower Alexander Volkanovski in their upcoming UFC 333 main event bout on October 24 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. As a fellow fighter at American Top Team, Masvidal's loyalty to Evloev influences his belief in his teammate's superior grappling ability. Masvidal emphasizes Evloev's endurance and stickiness, stating that even when opponents get to their feet, they struggle to break away cleanly as Evloev quickly re-engages, either with a strong body lock or a leg takedown. He believes this persistent grappling will wear down Volkanovski throughout the fight, making it difficult for the champion to regain control. Furthermore, Masvidal highlights Evloev's strength, grip, and overall MMA progress since his last fight, which includes improved clinch work and striking.",
