I don't know if the odds have changed but when i saw that blaydes was a 75% favorite it blew my mind, yes i understand on paper he's a better fighter than lewis and even a bad match up but there are some intangibles here
- derrick lewis can always use the "get the fuk up technique" and it works, he's a bigger man than blaydes and probably stronger
- blaydes doesn't have enough jiu jitsu to finish lewis, so thats out of the realm of possibilities
-if ngannou can ko blaydes so does lewis even if lewis is not as polished of a striker
- and last but not least, blaydes gasses and to be fair he doesn't as bad as 90% of the heavyweights, but if we are sure of something is that he's going to go with a heavy wrestling aproach which drains you even worst. My bet is he controls lewis on the ground for the first two rounds, by the third he doesn't have the strengh any longer to hold lewis on the ground and gets ko'd.
