I hate all of the odds on this card and this fight is no exception. Andre Petroski is almost a 3-1 favorite. I think he wins, but a 3-1 favorite? A guy who knocked himself out shooting a takedown? A guy who only landed 12 significant strikes in his last fight? Andre...

Nathan is a decent favorite here and it makes sense. Even though Zygimantas has insane volume and never stops throwing, he is also a bit chinny and can be taken down. If he closes his eyes and bombs away, it is very possible Nathan catches him, takes him down or both....
