Cote is 36, his chin isnt gonna be granite forever. Fighters lose their chins seemingly overnight. Sure, it's not likely that Cowboy knocks him out but at -500, why even bother?Good feedback, but again 32 pro fights for Cote, never been stopped by strikes. And plenty of those against MUCH bigger guys who hit much harder than Cowboy.
Another reason I think the line has value: Even if Cowboy were to land a head kick that really hurt Cote, Cowboy will often use that as an opportunity to sub hunt and finish that way. So even if he does land and have Cote in trouble (unlikely imo, but of course possible), he may not opt to finish with strikes.
