I think probably more likely Paddy by sub, but, after how easily he dealt with Chandler - and giving the frames and movements are similar, I feel this fight will be similar; Justin is a better Chandler, basically, but, only in that he seems to hit harder and is a bit bigger for the weight. But, he gets hit just as much if not more, as Paddy recently said 'he takes 4 to give 1'.
Never used to be able to stand Paddy personally, but rergardless, given how improved his striking looked v Chandler - much better in-and-out; hopping in and out movement; leg kicks, variety of strikes, different angles. He still gets hit himself, but his defence was better than when he used to run at guys bascially begging for his chin to be smashed.
Can just see Paddy being a bit more disciplined and using his range, leg kicks and catching Justin and jumping on him. That could then just lead to a sub though, so I think it's 50/50 with sub or knockout, but obviously the knockout is bigger $ so hoping for that. Plus then we have the fact Justin is 38, Paddy is in his athletic prime still pretty much, on the come up, getting better, Justin is hand-picking fights and entering middle-age, of course he could still catch Paddy but can't see him winning this.
Can't bet much, but even a few bucks adds a little fun...

£5 - Paddy for the win
£10 - Paddy for the KO
And then £10 for the O'Malley win. I think he's too fast, accurate and busy for Song. Can see him piecing him up a fair bit as Song looks for less shots, plus with Sean coming off back to back losses but still young, hungry and humbling himself going to a co-main already... he seems in a good place mentally and has something to prove; probably a pretty dominant decision win, maybe a stoppage for Sean IMO.
