Is 7/1 for Mikaeljan to pull off the upset against Opetaia a good price?

    Opetaia went life and death with Briedis (who was at the end of his career) twice despite winning and some people believe Mikaelijan beat Briedis. I know triangle theories don’t always work but what do you think.

    No, I think the odds are pretty accurate. Opetaia will probably win a wide but somewhat competitive decision, 117–111.

    Do you think this is his best opponent so far after Briedis?

    For sure.

    I'd still back Opetaia but Mikaeljan is game and a live dog.

    Opetaia should win but Mikaeljon should probably be undefeated. He has gotten the fuzzy end of a lot of lollipops. If you have a few bucks to blow, why not...
