vs Charles Radtke clear UFC 293 Full Card Breakdown, Predictions, & Analysis · September 6, 2023
strikingsolid

He states twice, plainly, that Radtke has to be the pick because he is the complete MMA fighter against a kickboxer with a real hole in his ground game, and repeats the same name right after with no hedge on the win itself -- only a side note that a specific-round knockout prop on Diamond might be worth a small side bet, which is price talk, not a qualifier on who wins.

A solid kickboxer with real power who can kick to every level and is clearly the better pure striker in this matchup. The analyst's core concern is what happens if the fight leaves the feet: Diamond has a good initial takedown defense but once the fight is actually on the ground, or once anything gets chained together against him, his skill runs out. That gap is the stated reason the analyst picks against him.
