Cmon dude he has a clear advantage standing. He gave Belal a lot of problems standing and Belal is way above anything that Gall has faced. His tdd is hit and miss but the sharp play is Brown at + money. I should abstain tho said i'd never bet Brown again after the Montano fight but im not sure how much mold poisoning affected him there. Both have been out a while so we could see improvements from both. Brown's tdd is hard to get a handle on. It can look real solid in parts such as the Graves and Belal fights, but then he seems to give up easy takedowns to them both later in the fight. Also Jackson and Sage are really 155ers, this is Galls first legit WW opponent.
His reach and length gave Belal problems. Belal is only 5'10". Brown's height and reach aren't that big of an issue here. Speaking of Graves, look at how easy of a time Graves had with him once he latched onto the back.
Overall, I'm just not impressed with Brown. I think he's good at being opportunistic and is competent in most areas, but he also seems that he can just fold. We don't really know how good or bad Gall is, but I feel he's good enough to beat what I've seen from Brown. My biggest worry with Gall is getting beat up in the clinch off failed takedowns or gassing himself out going for takedowns.
