Where kevin showed Michal that there are levels to BJJ, Roman would do the same to Kevin. Their BJJ isn't even close and if i could be certain that Roman would grapple Kevin, I would bet ever penny I have on him. But as he has shown us in the past, his gameplans are unreliable and so is his cardio. Elevation will only make all of that worse. In theory, Roman should be able to walk forward, rip kevin down and stomp him on the ground. I love roman as a dog here but I can't trust the moneyline. The only bet to place here is roman ITD dec. no action. If i need to make a pick, I will also pick Roman, but guys, not all picks are equal. I know you love tracking shit and showing wins vs losses, but this is a ridiculously low confidence pick.

Roman Dolidze

Roman Dolidze is a world champion grappler who has showcased those skills more than one time in the Octagon. The problem is though, you don't know when he will actually use his grappling. He has no problems marching forward, throwing heavy punches and getting stuck in a striking match. He has very real power which he does tend to chase with. Dolidze is a very well rounded fighter who can knock you out or submit you, but he doesn't always have the best gameplans and can fade later in fights. He is coming off the decision win over Anthony Smith where he had the striking volume and takedown.

Kevin Holland

Kevin Holland is an accurate and powerful striker who has struggled with takedown defense but has very solid grappling when he is taken down. Other than the wrestling defense, Kevin is a problem for a lot of people. He's a sniper on his feet with great accuracy and range. He can also grapple really well and be a competitive on the ground with his length. He is coming off the impressive win over Michal Oleksiejczuk where despite it being controversial, the submission was impression and showed there are levels to the ground game.
