Insider info
vs Edmen Shahbazyan clear UFC 282 Full Card Analysis, Preview, and Prediction · December 6, 2022
Gives decisive comparative language for several areas (better grappling, better striking, faster) and the only real hedge is that the price is too short to be worth a bet, not doubt about who wins.
A powerfully built, shorter fighter whose reach comes from wide shoulders rather than long arms. Real strengths in Judo and punching power, with the physical strength to control a man against the cage. Coming off poor recent form and limited UFC impact, and like his opponent, prone to low activity and gas issues.
