    Barboza is a better striker than Pearson. So is Njokuani.

    Wouldn't be surprised if Pearson tried to out-wrestle him. I think Barboza will knock him out instead.

    Always like watching Pearson on the pre lims, undercard or fight nights. He is good quality for that level and with a bit of work he might break that level comfortably. He did beat Siver and Fisher afterall.

    Pearson has better hands imo. Barboza is a better Muay Thai guy though..

    Pearsons best chance is to take this to the ground, or try to keep Barboza against the cage. Strange for a british fighter having to use a wrestling stategy but Barboza's striking is just too good for Pearson.
