Rewatching the Jiri-Glover, i didn't notice or realize how fast Jiri is, It's hard to notice or appreciate it watching live because of how insane the fight was. He has a very fast and good snap behind his punches, especially his straights. And the speed at which he closes the distance is impressive. I don't think Jiri will have too much trouble hitting Alex P with his blitzes and leaping punches. Actually, I think that's his best way of winning. He's not fundamentally sounded enough to play tit for tat at the distance with Alex.
Logically speaking, Alex should be the favorite because he has the better fundamentals, amazing precisions, and Jiri's striking defense is shit. But I can't shake the feeling that Jiri is going to KO Pereira. I think Jiri will put Alex on the backfoot, which is where Alex is most vulnerable at. With Alex's tall and narrow stance, I can see Jiri rocking his world with a straight and finishing him with a flurry of punches.
