Think Adesanya outstrikes Gastelum pretty easily. In terms of striking diversity they're polar opposites.I see dogs.
Poirier at these odds is a must bet IMO. He's a natural striker that won't let Max piece him up. I wonder what the FGTD props will be. Poirier by decision should be an interesting prop.
I love Adesanya and think he's the future of the division but Gastelum is a very very hard out. He may be the worst case scenario actually for Israel. I want to see props but does Israel have the power to KO Gas or is he going to rely on out pointing him for 25 minutes? Seems like a stretch. On the other hand, does Gas have the ability to get his hands on Israel and make it a dirty fight? Sick, sick fight. Can't wait.
Other initial leans I will have to tape - Looking forward to this one for sure.
Wow, completely dominate him? What in the hell are you smoking?Holloway will completely dominate Poirier unless he incorporates a leg kick heavy attack into his gameplan.
YEAH... Gastelum is just a 1-2, but he is hella quick with that combo and has that ultra durable chin and cardio, + he has the wrestling edge. adesanya is not a big mw, doesnt have the one kill shot power, gastelum will have a lot of chances to make his game work, regardless of how limited it is. dont coutn him out, jordan.Think Adesanya outstrikes Gastelum pretty easily.

TBH Jordan, Dustin had to take him down the 1st fight, he was getting washed on the feet. Both has gain experience and improved, but Max is still a lot better standing up to me at least. I don't worry one bit about Max if the fight is on the feet for the majority of the time. The only thing i worry is the ground. Max is going to fuck Dustin up on the feet, though - guaranteed.Already hit Poirier +225 pretty hard as well. Max is great but I still question his TDD and Poirier is still a beast on the feet. His fight with Gaethje also a pretty good indicator as to how he can cope with Max's pressure.

I got my eyes on that Millender V Muhammad fight. I got French Montana all the way here. Just waiting for the odds.
Max is better on the feet no doubt but Poirier still has great boxing and hits a lot harder. So it'll still be very competitive. The big thing for me is that a terrible wrestler in Ortega got Max down twice. Poirier has much better positional BJJ than Ortega and wrestling so he should be able to hit them and will do a much better job keeping Max down. Also expect Max to get his first taste of ATT calf kicks this match up. I favour Max overall for sure but Poirier at +225 is way too wide. Also I don't take the first fight into consideration at all, its completely irrelevant imo.YEAH...

Last time that happened i lost a few thousandFuck Kyle agrees with me. I'm in trouble.
oh sorry, I forgot that.Not talking about betting, just responding to Kyle in regarding to him "waiting on odds"
That cracked me up.Fuck Kyle agrees with me. I'm in trouble.
Still, I kinda think it will take a lot of effort for him to take Max down. First time Poirier had to literally lift Max off the ground to take him down, this happens when all other regular methods just doesn't work. He has that supreme TDD and he was a kid back then, a lot skinnier than now. + money on Poirier doesn't look tempting at all. Would like to see how much is Poirier by sub, tho.The big thing for me is that a terrible wrestler in Ortega got Max down twice.
