I'm a huge fan of Cieślak as well, Benavidez is big favourite though. One thing I find interesting is that there will be big weight difference in the ring. Cieślak is a big guy, from what I know he rehydrates to about 220lbs, and I think Benavidez doesn't even make weight to fight at cruiser.
Fun match up but certainly not a title worthy fight. I’d back Miller to outwork Gassiev to a decision. If Gassiev could stop Miller, it would be quite impressive.
I like Gassiev, but Miller (who outweighs him by about a hundred pounds and will likely be on PEDs) is a very bad matchup for him.
I expect him to be favored, he was favored against Pero and everyone was saying Pero would smoke him which was a shocker
Hopefully they will find a better opponent for Dainier Pero next time out. He's the better of the two Pero brothers, but he's been fighting very soft opposition. This content is protected
Another win for Hemi Ahio against a nobody opponent. He was meant go face Kiki Toa Leutele, but he pulled out last minute, so Hemi Ahio was forced into fighting a late notice opponent. Sadly for Hemi, the bigger fights just haven't ever arrived for him.
I didn't like this because it's not good news. But I thought that Ahio could have come in as a live dog against top shelf up-and-comers in the past. If Teremoana is fighting in Australia, and is looking for a challenge who's experienced but mid-30s, I reckon Ahio could be a good choice. I don't know the promotional ins-and-outs of this though, or if Teremoana prefers a recognised American name?
I actually think it’s a decent Matchup for gassiev, Murat struggles with movers he won’t have to go looking for miller. miller is extremely hittable and got dragged into a war with Browne, also never hook with a hooker. Murat stops him.
