FIGHT WINNER
Taylor Lapilus
โก67%
This prediction is for a hypothetical rematch between Cody Stamann and Taylor Lapilus on June 8, 2026. It's important to note that these two fighters already competed on June 8, 2024, with Taylor Lapilus winning by unanimous decision. Furthermore, both fighters were reportedly removed from the UFC roster in February 2025. Taylor Lapilus has since signed with the Professional Fighters League (PFL) and has been highly active and successful, securing four consecutive wins, including a TKO victory in February 2026, and has an upcoming PFL bout in May 2026. Cody Stamann has also competed outside the UFC, winning a decision in October 2025, but suffered a submission loss in his last UFC fight in November 2024 and dealt with a bicep injury in late 2024. Given Lapilus's decisive victory in their first encounter, his current momentum, and his consistent striking volume and defense (4.59 SLpM at 48% accuracy, 62% striking defense), he is well-positioned to repeat his performance. Stamann's wrestling is a key strength, but Lapilus demonstrated solid takedown defense (77%) in their previous fight. While Stamann is durable, Lapilus's superior striking and recent form make a decision victory the most probable outcome in this hypothetical rematch.
