If anybody is feeling FOMO for not betting Izzy last night, Gokhan Saki is like the same thing
--Both obviously talented kickboxers
--Both saw adversity adjusting to MMA in early fight (Izzy = ground, Saki = cardio)
--Both opened as solid faves and the market relentelessly bet them to tiny faves bc recent performance
Izzy more physical talented, but Saki is more proven. He held his own kickboxing vs prime Ubereem and regularly fought bigger dudes. And the big difference is that Izzy had a solid opponent whereas Saki is fighting a bum who has just as bad ground game and cardio as himself.
I don't get how anybody believes Rountree has anything close to a 50% chance here. It's going to be a standup fight and he is going to be significantly worse.
