Streaking featherweights Steve Garcia and David Onama clash in the main event of UFC Fight Night 263 as the UFC returns to the Apex following the scenes in Abu Dhabi last week. The fighters, ranked 12th and 13th in the featherweight rankings, will be extra motivated for the win, as the victor will likely face a top-10 opponent next time. The promotion has rewarded Steve Garcia and David Onama for their perseverance and hard work with a main event slot. Sharing the same trajectory as David Onama, of finding success at 145 pounds after a rough stint at 155, Steve Garcia, who is on a six-fight winning streak, is the slight favorite over Ugandan David Onama.

Steve Garcia vs David Onama Fight Prediction
The fighters have been in excellent form and have not lost for quite a while. Steve Garcia showed a lot of grit to get the better of Calvin Kattar last time. Even though David Onama overcame the veteran Giga Chikadze last April, we are tipping towards a Garcia victory. However, we believe the fight will go beyond the first round. Bet on over 1.5 rounds.
