This is a brand new fight with Alesandro Costa stepping up on short notice to replace Imanol Rodrigues who was definitely going to KO Matt Schnell. But just because we swapped the person doesn't mean we need to change the prediction. Costa is too fast and hits too hard to Schnell to survive here. Short notice or not I love Costa in this spot and am hoping he will be far more affordable than the -1400 price tag we had when imanol was in this spot.

Matt Schnell

Matt Schnell is a striker with solid BJJ. He prefers to counter strike and does a good job getting you to follow him so he can plant his feet and fire back with combinations. He doesn't shoot every often and he can't defend a takedown but his BJJ is solid and he can snatch things up in scrambles. His chin s horrendous but he is tough and scrappy.

Alessandro Costa

Alessandro Costa is a solid striker with pretty good takedown defense. His striking style is a high tight guard and patience. He will wait and find his spots. When he decides to throw, he throws with 100% intent and does a really nice job of small combinations. He will leap in with a left to the body then a right up top to the head. He has very real power and insane leg kicks. He is coming off the KO win over Stewart Nicoll.
