Aldo-Mendes start round 4 -132 1.32 to win 1
I originally was going to bet this as over 4.5, but I like the small cushion in case there's a late stop (entirely possible). Chad's best route to victory here is making this an ugly, grinding fight. Jose just needs to do what Jose does - mix his punches with his leg kicks and dazzle us with take down defense. I think Aldo wins this one, but I also think Mendes is good enough now with his striking to win a round or two.
Stringer over Maldonado +110 1.5 to win 1.65
Hans is the better fighter; Maldonado is the better boxer. Hans has been working with the Dutch kickboxing legend Henri Hooft down in south Florida and will put on quite a performance, mixing his punches, elbows, knees and kicks, to rattle Fabio all night.
Martins over Elkins +170 .5 to win .85
Pretty simple. Martins has to defend take downs to win. It's undoubtedly all he's been training. If he does, he wins. If he doesn't, it'll be a long night.
Macario over Magny +200 .5 to win 1
I missed this one on first glance. We got a lot going for us on this dog. Patolino has a ton of power, better BJJ, he's stronger and this is in Brazil. This will likely go to decision where judges like to side with Brazilians in Brazil. Magny wants to use his 6'3" 170 lb frame to pick and pat from the outside.
Reis over Jorgensen -170 1.7 to win 1
Jorg likes to wrestle, he likes to scramble. He wins fights when he's able bully and outpoint on the ground. He can't do that here. Wilson is a better grappler. When he's been lined up with those types recently (Jussier, Faber, Makovsky), he's lost badly. He missed weight today and has looked uninspired lately.
Burns inside distance over Giagos +100
2 to win 2
Giagos is a good athlete; Burns is a multiple time BJJ world champ, about as strong a frame you can have for a LW, training with a great camp, and has finished 7 out of 8 opponents in his unbeaten career. This is about as tough a debut Giagos could've gotten.
Alright, that's it. Good luck.
