Yadier is going to be the pick here because I do think he is good and certainly good enough to not be taken down or submitted by Jordan Leavitt. But guys, he was just on the other end of a fixed fight. You can't possibly watch his last fight and use that as any sort of influence over your pick here. That was fake, he was fighting someone who was trying to lose (allegedly). So we need to ignore that fight and look at everything prior to that for reference. I think he defend's Jordan's sub par takedowns, beats the crap out of him on the feet and if he does end up on the ground, is good enough to not be subbed. Yadier is the pick.

Yadier del Valle

Yadier DelValle is a good grappler with solid striking and ok power. He will work knees in the clinch and not shy away from a slug fight. His cardio isn't great but it doesn't affect his volume. His takedowns are just ok, but his submissions are very good. He will jump Guily which can be frustrating, but he has a wide enough arsenal of attacks that he doesn't rely on a hail mary. He is coming off the sketchy win over Isaac Dulgarian

Jordan Leavitt

Jordan Leavitt is an old school grappler. I do a lot of breakdowns where I say “he's well rounded”, but thats not Jordan. He's very one dimensional with sub par striking and wrestling. The problem with Jordan is that because his striking isn't a real threat, he can't use it to set up takedowns and because his wrestling is less than ok at 30% accuracy, he needs perfect setups to get takedowns which are not easy to come by. He is coming off the submission win over Kurt Holobough where not only did he get the takedowns, he got 3 in the first round.
