well, let's see with smoking gives you bad cardio with Prates fighting 5 rounds and having to grapple probably
 
We really need to see Ian, For The Very First Time,

ACT like he has a threat of winning by, umm, Stopping An Opponent.

In 9 UFC fights Garry has exactly 0 submission wins. This includes guys who are terrible grapplers.

Prates was last submitted 17 fights ago, just shy of a decade, and he's on an 11 fight win streak. He's gone 4-0 in the UFC with 4 KO wins.

Garry is a solid point fighter but picking him by submission is frankly absurd.
Fair ig decision is more likely, I was overreacting to him backpacking MVP and much more importantly, Shavkat. He really is a Chute Boxe grappler but yeah not a great finisher with it yet
 
Garry is -138 on FanDuel. From a value standpoint I think I’ll be throwing on that. If Prates really is smoking 10 cigs a day his cardio isn’t going to last 5 rounds, let alone 3.
 
Prates is def more dangerous and currently way more feared

Props to Garry for taking the fight

He must know something new don’t about prates takedown defense ?

Winner could be in a number one contender fight …
 
This is sensational matchmaking. And so is Royval vs Kape. UFC matchmakers are on fire with these two great bouts.

Curious to see how Prates fares in the later rounds against a guy who’ll likely try to outpoint him. My heart is with Prates, but I think Garry will win.

Regardless of the outcome, Garry deserves respect for jumping right back into the fire against such a hot prospect who’s been on a tear.
