Morgan Charriere vs Felipe Lima

Main pick: Felipe Lima defeats Morgan Charriere.
Confidence: 3.5/5.
Explanation: It's one of the highest level and most balanced fights on the card. Charriere has power, experience and the support of the crowd, but Lima seems to me a bit more complete to produce winning minutes in different phases. He can maintain standing volume, press, introduce clinch and resort to grappling if the striking starts to favor the Frenchman. Charriere is especially dangerous when he can plant his feet and generate damage, so Lima needs to avoid unnecessarily static exchanges. I expect a competitive fight, but Lima's ability to change phases tilts the matchup slightly.
Suggestions: Lima ML with moderate stake. Alternative: Lima by decision.
ML Odds Cut: A 1.52 still has interest; below 1.40 would be too short for such a competitive fight.
