As a general rule, I almost never play a fighter who is coming off of a violent knock out loss. Now combine this with the fact that Burkman is 35 years old and for the first time in his career is making a drop down to 155 pounds -- where we know the weight-cut lessens the amount of damage your chin can take -- and there's the possibility for a repeat scenario. Add all of the aforementioned knowledge to the fact that KJ is a former boxer who has clean, crisp, quick and heavy hands with solid TDD and there's a lot of worry for JB bettors. Historically, KJ has shown to have pretty good beard and who knows how JB will look in rounds two and three if KJ is still hanging around.
The thing with KJ is that he is highly inconsistent. Physically he has all of the tools to win fights he should win, yet he is up and down and often fights with a level of apathy that is discouraging.. Nevertheless, He looked good the WIs and I just believe this is a dog or pass situation. Personally I think that I'm going to put a bet on KJ's ML or KJ via TKO for action.. Acronym
...... BOL either way bro!
