Quilan Salkilld -192 vs Guage Young +160<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nBoth guys are young with a ton of upside so this should be a great fight. I like that Salkilld is coming out of Eternal MMA as that\u2019s a promotion with really good fighters coming out of it (Tom Nolan, Steve Erceg, etc), and Salkillk has won 6 in a row in that league. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
He\u2019s smothering with his takedowns and ground game, and is constantly looking for submissions and control, and he has a really good top game that is tough to reverse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Another impressive thing is that he already has a 5 round fight on his resume that he won by decision so he\u2019s shown impressive cardio, and in that fight he was able to get takedowns in the later rounds while still striking so his durability and energy are impressive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
His striking is pretty good on the feet, but he makes his money on the ground. Young is a really strong fighter who likes to get this fight on the ground as well, and like Salkilld, he\u2019s got a great top game with the ability to control opponents, but he has some really good striking skills on the feet as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Young\u2019s competition hasn\u2019t been as good as Salkilld\u2019s, but he\u2019s taken care of business and he\u2019s going to be a tough out for Salkilld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
I give the lean to Salkilld<\/strong> because I think his technique is a bit more polished, but Young is absolutely capable to do some damage on the feet and make this a really close fight. I won\u2019t bet this with my own money, but Salkilld is the lean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nShannon Clark -500 vs Yuneisy Duben +380<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nDuben has quite the resume as the combined record of the fighters she\u2019s faced is 0-0. That\u2019s right, she\u2019s had 5 fights, and it was the debut fight for every opponent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Congratulations to her as she\u2019s finished all of them, but it\u2019s not been a tough road. She has good power, but she\u2019s sloppy, and in fact she got taken down in the first round of her last fight to a really bad fighter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
This is going to be a very rude awakening for her as Shannon Clark is the first opponent she\u2019ll have who will actually be able to fight back, and not only will Clark fight back, she\u2019ll push forward, and land good strikes in the clinch, control Duben and my guess is she\u2019ll get the takedown and then get the finish on the ground. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Clark is really strong, and just submitted a black belt with an insane bulldog choke in her last fight, and Duben ain\u2019t a black belt. Duben is very raw and exploitable, I don\u2019t see her having success in this one<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nAustin Bashi -500 vs Dorian Ramos +380<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nBashi is only 22 years old, but he looks like he has his man-body and man-strength, and I think he\u2019s going to be stronger than Ramos in this one which is important because both guys like getting takedowns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Bashi is very aggressive with his forward pressure, and he loves picking guys up and slamming them so he look for ground and pound or submission. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
His striking defense is pretty bad, but Ramos isn\u2019t a great striker so the big weakness that I see in Bashi may not be exploited in this fight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Ramos likes to take guys down and lay on them, but on the feet he\u2019s pretty week. I don\u2019t think his striking is good, and I haven\u2019t been real impressed with his wins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
He just doesn\u2019t seem to have the energy or aggression that Bashi does on the feet or on the ground, and I don\u2019t think that changes with him taking this on short notice. Bashi should overwhelm Ramos<\/strong> here and get the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nWill Currie -395 vs Djorden Santos +310<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nCurrie should be able to do whatever he wants in this one as Santos is not impressive, and I can\u2019t really tell you anything that Santos is great at. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
In his last fight, he won a decision when he held his opponent against the fence for long periods of time in one of the most boring fights I\u2019ve seen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
His stance is weak, his striking isn\u2019t scarring anyone, and he doesn\u2019t appear to have a good wrestling or jiu jitsu game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Currie likes to start fights fast and strong with his striking to set up the takedown, and he has really good finishing ability once it gets to the ground. His cardio is an issue, however, I don\u2019t think he\u2019ll need 3 rounds to finish Santos here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Currie\u2019s striking defense leaves a lot to be desired, but I don\u2019t think Santos has what it takes to test that weakness. Currie should get to Santos early<\/strong>, get him on the ground and get the finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
DWCS Week 4 Main Event: Igor Cavalcanti -310 vs Seokhyeon Ko +250<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n
This fight is tough to handicap because there isn\u2019t film on Cavalcanti. All his wins are in the first round, but the competition hasn\u2019t been that good, and without seeing film, it\u2019s tough to guage him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
I think I found a fight of his where he beat up a can, but I can\u2019t actually verify it. Ko\u2019s last two wins are against a guy in his early 40\u2019s and a guy in his early 50\u2019s<\/strong> so take that for what it is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nHis striking looks decent, but in 2021 he faced a guy who was young and in his prime, and Ko got knocked out when he walked into a strike with his chin wide open, and this guy has fraud written all over him as his level of competition has been a joke. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
Outside of a quick start from Cavalcanti, I have no clue what to expect in his fight<\/strong> so I recommend not betting a penny of your money on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n**************************************************<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\nLooking for more free sports picks and sports betting tips?<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\nMake sure to bookmark all the above!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31384","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31384"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31384\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31385,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31384\/revisions\/31385"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3648"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31384"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31384"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wagertalk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31384"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
