Do bo Nickal stand a chance against Paul Craig ?

[Versez]

I see it as a big step up to be honest.

theres a large gap, do bo nickal has the shape to be a 185 ers ?

We'll see.

Draft kings has Bo Nickal as -1200 favourite.

I think he has a chance.

He is a 185er... From what I have seen he has better striking than Craig so unless he takes Craig down he should outstrike him to a finish or clear decision win.

Of course

 

[Enigma87]

Craig has the most dangerous guard in the division, would love to see Bo take him down. Bo can prob outstrike him pretty easily though and prob what he will do

 

[Natural Order]

Craig pretty dangerous from bottom. Im guessing Bo wants to keep this standing so he can let his hands fly. Looks like he’s already making the turn from decorated grappler to boxer!

 

[dschinghiskhan1]

Bo should be too quick for him on the feet. Might be craig sitting down to guard a lot and then being forced to stand up.

 

[Versez]

bo wasnt impressive in his last bout, i mean nowhere impressive as a young khamzat from 2020. Yet people see the future in him.

 

[Blastbeat]

if Bo makes one mistake on the ground with Craig he could find himself in a triangle or triangle armbar. i think Bo will elect to strike with Craig since that's where he'd be better. Craig's takedowns arent too great either.

 

[Qays Stetkevich]

Current-day Craig has a chin that a sneeze can KO, but I would like to see some high level grappling out of this one and will be hoping Craig pulls (yet another) upset.

 

[BEATDOWNS]

lol Craig 100% brought in to lose.

 

[Killer Kadoogan]

isnt it obvious? bo destroys him.

 

[NoStoneUnturned]

I hope he do, but if he don't do what he should do then he is in deep do-do as things that need doing won't do by themselves.

 

[RockyLockridge]

Yet people see the future in him.

I've never heard of anyone prop him up, except one guy on this forum who always goes up to bat for bo's crazy card placements. His way of going about this is something like "the bout order doesn't matter" or "I can't see how it's forced, It's just like any other fight" goofball shit


I've never seen a less impressive forced hype prospect. Atleast Sage Northcutt was Jacked and could do cool flips.

 

[Uber_Noober]

K1 Bo is born, he gets the walk off KO in this fight, bet your 65k dollar house on it.

 

[World eater]

The only way Craig wins is by sub and only if Nickal makes a big mistake.

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Bo is gonna probably try to keep this standing, and that gives him an obvious edge. I don't see Craig as a real threat, though he's pulled off legit wins against opponents who should have handled him with relative ease, so there's always a possibility he pulls it off. He's always there to win.

 

[PaulieVegas27]

I was thinking the opposite, actually.

 

[OldBoy91]

Stand a chance? He should be a sizeable favourite imo.

He is already a better striker than Craig, he has the grappling to nullify Craig on the ground. He lasted so long grappling with Gordon Ryan.

Plus Craig is on the older side and the cut to 185 really diminishes him, he's mostly looked like crap since he dropped from 205.

Craig's guard is great but Bo's a beast

it would probably go something like this
