I havent done any tape on this match up, does Edilov have the KO power to end this fight?

Bojan Mihajlovic is the king bum on this card. No grappling, just weird looping overhands. Edilov is a good prospect, lost a couple early mostly to good opponents, but he's only 25 and those were when he was 19-20. Should be an easy fight for him. Can def get a sub, could KO but doesn't need to
 
Kind of liking the Taisumov/Silva u1.5 and Silva as the underdog. Silva's left the first round once, and I feel like it's going to be a 4 minute action fight. Taisumov's striking defense isn't impeccable by any means.

Agree, he's my favorite dog pick tbh. I know there's some others around +250 but I'm too high on their opponents. Taisumov is super solid but I've seen him get tagged a lot. Even when he's winning striking exchanges he leaves himself open and gets hit a lot

man the struve/vokov size difference wasn't much at all, especially when you consider struve can't manage distance against guys who are 5'11.

I think it's interesting that Struve says he trains a lot with very tall guys. Maybe that's why he uses his range so ineffectively, because he's used to guys who don't have deal with it as much.

Like it man thanks, ill play him in a parlay or two! Bojan is a fuckin bum hajah
 
Anyone else really big time into Volkov here?
Really really don't see Struve dealing with him at all

If the fight keeps standing at distance i give the edge to Volkov, congo made it look so easy when he fought Volkov, i can see Struve get the takedown or the ko from the clinch, Struve prbly gona have 20pounds on volkov
 
Volkov has put on size since the kongo fight and his tdd is vastly improved
 
Like 50% of edilovs fights have ended under 1

Not 1 round but 1 minute

Big dick Johnson could barely hold onto Volkov from memory, I can't see NCAA Struve doing any better
 
I'm on Struve as well, but a small bet. I have more on ITD in parlays. I've never thought highly of Volkov. I don't think there is much discrepancy standing. I think Struve is loads better on the ground. I may even give Struve the edge in the clinch.

in the areas where struve excels over volkov he gives it al back with his questionable punch resistance
 
all Wilkinson 12 fights have been at 185 but hes taken a short notice fight at 170. looks like he should be a 185 to me. maybe lost some muscle to get down to 170 (poss due to injury, dunno) or he gonna be fkn huge.could miss weight. not gonna be helping any gasses issues he may have. posts of him cutting to 185 on fb. and in april he wanted a fight at 200 pound. think im gonna be on siyar. didnt like his striking or the way he reacted to getting hit in the abdalla fight.
ignore this. tapology had the fight listed as 170 wrongly. hes still gonna gas and get finished tho, even at 185
 
played a couple O/U's:

struve-volkov O2.0 (starts rd 3) at -115 -- i think volkov tries to make it slow paced and cautious. he's got a good chin and good tdd and he doesn't have much power.

magomedsharipov-santiago U1.5 +120. (like the latter a bit more). -- fairly confident that santiago is gonna come out swinging. as such, he either gets a KO or gets finished, himself.
