Chidi Njokuani vs Joel Álvarez

Pick principal: Joel Álvarez beats Chidi Njokuani.
Trust: 3.5/5.
Explanation: Álvarez but it's a rather less worrying short notice than usual because I was already training in New Jersey with the team of Makhachev. In addition, this will be your third fight in welter, a category in which its huge size continues to be an advantage. Njokuani remains very dangerous in striking: has length, speed, knees and power sufficient to punish Joel if he accepts too long a clean fight standing up. The difference appears when Álvarez mixing phases. You can use your alcance, close distance and turn virtually any transition into a threat of submission. Njokuani comes after a very irregular stage. I see clearly favorite to Joel, although I agree that a quota close to 1.40 exaggerates the difference taking into account the change of rival and the danger it presents Chidi in trade.
Suggestions: Álvarez ML with stake Alternative: Álvarez by submission.
Quota cut ML: I've been into it since 1.50; around 1.40 Or less loses quite attractive.
