50/50 fight. Someone is about to visit the shadow realm. Me likey.
 
Miles is a slow starter and Cody is the opposite of that.
might see Cody bag another W here
 
In the past we had to worry Cody finds a way to get knocked out.
That's why his opponent has a 27% ko rate.

Lately we also have to worry for him to get chocked out, that's why Miles has a 13% submission rate.
Those stats are too good to be true for Cody, so his opponent pulls out or Cody is injured.

How god is Johns?
 
I think Cody is more talented, but Miles seems to have turned a bit of a corner lately and is legitimately one of the most explosive dudes at 135. I think in the first round he might be one of the few guys on the roster who can match Cody's absurd hand speed. He also hits fairly hard and -- if needed -- can drive a hard wrestling pace (at least for two rounds). Cody looked incredibly suspect with his defensive grappling against a career Flyweight, so I'm not sure I like his chances against Johns if he decides to go that route.

If Cody can keep it standing and drag the fight into deep waters he can probably outstrike Miles, but it would be competitive. That said, I'm gonna have to favor the dude with less wear & tear even if I'm not convinced of his ceiling.
 
Despite me knowing this is Garbrandt's entire tool kit, mixed with his chin, I think he's got a good shot to beat Miles, who's finally getting a step up in name.

Is there some super-secret cheat code (i.e. up-up, down-down, left-right, left-right, square) to make him fight like he did versus Dom or is that the result of random button-mashing like in Marvel vs. Capcom Arcade edition?

Cody looked reeally good in round 1 vs Figgy. Giant step-up for Miles here, hope the odds are close or hopefully Cody is the dog
 
Why would Cody not be the favorite here?

Cody is one of my boys but I’m not picking him to win fights anymore unless it’s against someone who is washed
 
Winnable for Garbrandt. I think he gets him out of there in 2 rounds.
