VERY #elite predictionbArzola? wat man. Benitez will fuck him up badly sorry.
Dont underestimate the improvement yair will be making fight to fight. Very gifted fighter. You cant compare yair to the yair that fought rosa. That was over 2 years ago yair is a different fighter
Why is Edgar on the decline all of a sudden? Am I missing something?
Food for thought - he's only lost to Jose Aldo in the last 5 years.
A quick browse on page 2 and the only person who said Edgar is declining is #elite bettor MMA Gambling Expert. Sometimes some people make it seem like this is some wide discussion when its only one person.I'm still waiting for an answer to this..
People jumping to conclusions way too quickly

I feel like edgar is declining so i think im loving yairs price. I need to watch tape tho. Someone talk to me on this?
edgar's definitely declining, the thing is he's declining from such a high lvl that he's stil world class. yair's range could cause edgar issues. not got a lean either way right now tbh. prices out for this yet?
Stephens had him on skates his last fight. Just doesn't seem to take punches as well these days (taken a lot of punishment) and I think the Aldo lose had to take some wind out of his sails knowing that was his last shot at 145 title.

Whelp, proven wrong lol will let them speak for themselves nowNot just him
I agree. Yair has open ended potential where as Frankie could possibly be on decline. We have mainly seen him outgrind other grapler-boxers with stocky build. Frankie hasn't faced that many funky rangy opponents and Oliveira did pretty well agaist him standing. It's three rounds, so if Frankie gets smashed in the first, he won't have four more to grind a win. Frankie likes to fight from the outside and blitz for striking bursts and takedowns. Doing that he will give Yair plenty of oppurtunities to hit him with something unexpected. If it was Frankie's choice to fight Yair instead of Ricardo Lamas, he might not be aiming to the belt anymore and his motivation and confidence are questionable, and that could mean, that Frankie's decline has already begun and he knows it.I think Edgar is declining, he's older and he's had his run at the top. He did not look great vs Stephens, that fight was a lot closer than the scores suggested.
Yes BJ is washed but god damn did Yair slaughter him like no one else has. This guy literally looks better every fight, I know that saying gets used a lot but it's very true here. You can watch the skill progression from fight to fight.
I expect him to be on yet another level that we have not seen before and I think he will overwhelm BJ. Don't sleep on Yair's wrestling either, crazy scrambles too.
Edgar has great fundamentals and has mastered the basics, Yair is anything but basic.
Old school vs New School, I'll take the up and comer, not the guy on his way out.
Has Frankie really declined THAT much in the last 2 years? Yeah at 36 he's not in his physical prime but as was pointed out, he's lost to Aldo and...Aldo in the last what...6 years or something? How long ago was it that he was straight up DISMANTLING Cub? I'm not sure about everyone else, but I rate Cub as a very good FW and Frankie just wrecked him.
Stephens is a giant FW with huge power (ask RDA). If he lands he generally hurts guys.
Do I like Yair's trajectory and the fact he's younger and more dynamic? Sure, of course. But stylistically, when have we seen him deal with a guy that has anywhere NEAR the the things Frankie brings to the table? Crisp boxing, great TD's and top control, and an endless gas tank?
I still need to do some research (and thankfully have time before this fight) but my first instinct sure as hell isn't to run out and go big on Yair at small to moderate dog odds.
I'm playing Maia @-150 or better.
I got him at 1.80 and it's still that at Bet365.
