I know the graphic says Payton Talbott and this is a picture of him, but it might as well be Bo Nickal with these odds. Payton is currently a -1500 favorite against a guy who is 12-2 and somehow those odds are correct. For conversion sake, -1500 favorite translates to a 94% win probability and I do think that Payton wins this fight at least 94% of the time. He's insanely talented, very dynamic, athletic, well rounded, fun, he's literally everything you want in a young fighter and this should be another showcase fight. Payton is the pick, but there is no value in moneyline, maybe you can get lucky with some props.

Payton Talbott

Payton Talbott is a very real prospect that the UFC will be looking to build. He is a flashy striker with a lot of movement and power. He is tall for the division and fights using that length. He throws out one twos at an incredible pace and then finds the big shots. He has solid takedown defense and if he is taken down he stays busy and looks to work his way back up. He can be out grappled though, if you go digging around his regional fights you can see that. He has composure and power but could be in trouble against a Dagastani style wrestler.

Yanis Ghemmouri

Yanis Ghemmouri is a patient striker with fantastic leg kicks. He likes to own the center, figure out the range and then work his opponents legs. Once he gauges range he starts to commit to strikes and add power into the cycle. He will work in takedowns but its mostly reactionary and when he does get takedowns he is looking for control and to slow the action. He is not the most dangerous guy but he is patient, technical and has solid fight IQ. He is coming off the 3rd round finish loss to William Gomis in his UFC debut.
