News Cody Stamann vs. Douglas Silva de Andrade at UFC Fight Night on May 13

Neither is young for the weight class, but Silva de Andrade's age is bound to catch up to him at some point. Will this be the fight?
 
I've always supported Stamman in his fights since he fought so soon after his brother passed years ago. He isn't elite, but he's a solid fighter. Hopefully he pulls out the win.

If his fight IQ was a bit better and perhaps his cardio, he has the skills to turn in very impressive performances vs middle of the road guys like Andrade and Lacerda but he usually seems to fall a bit flat.
 

This is a tough fight for me -- I've been a big fan of Stamann after his huge win shortly after his brother's passing against Brian Kelleher, but Douglas Silva de Andrade won me over as a lifelong fan after walking out to a song from Top Gear for the SNES, arguably my favorite racing game of all time.

As far as the match up goes, this is very close, but I think I give a very slight edge to Silva de Andrade..
 
I like this fight, two solid veterans. Will probably end up picking Stamann, close decision.
 
I expect Stamann to control this fight
Stamann is pretty underrated his striking is crafty and he can wrestle with all but the biggest BW's but he certainly falls apart against higher caliber opponents. Andrade doesn't seem like the type of guy who can throw Stamann off even if Andrade does land heavy shots I think Stamann will have enough in his arsenal to keep Andrade defensive for a decision win.
 
Rooting for De andrade. He's an underrated servant of the JBG. The dude comes to bang every single time. He's also only lost to Said nurmagomedov, petr yan, and Rob Font at BW. He's a great gatekeeper/action fighter.
