Pfl versus Bellator Champions versus Champions andian JY for wagertalk.com to break down all the fights for you it’s a fascinating card uh didn’t think we would ever see some of these matchups but uh lot of fun lot of good betting opportunities we are here to break everything down for you Jim let’s just
Get right into it we’re not going to do the first one you cannot bet on that one so we’ll start with Abdula Al katani versus I believe his name is pronounced IDU kundala ra um I have looked into these Fighters have you I have uh I thoroughly enjoy Ru I love his
Jumping spinning kicks I love his wild uh just kind of attacks and he’s going to get smoked and the the betting line reflects that so it’s it’s it’s minus one it’s minus 1000 um I invite you to look up Row’s last fight it’s I mean what what style is that is it Ty
T like crazy is what it is it’s CRA that’s his style yeah I don’t know I don’t know he’s he’s 4 in one uh some of his fights are been you know fought out of storage facilities uh things like that so he’s going to come in and take on uh
Al katat and this is just kind of one of those where you’ll see you’ll probably see a highlight real finish here um he uh katani went to decision his last one but he put a whooping on David zelner David zelner is way better than the wild
The wild swinging R so it’s a great parlay piece you’re obviously not just going to bet one minus 1,000 on its own but uh you I listen minus 1,000 doesn’t give you a ton of value in parlays but this one’s kind of worth it right the
There’s only uh there’s only one way you can bet this fight in my opinion is playing the unders you know alcaton did go to decision but that was against somebody who was better defensively uh R Ru however you say it is not good defensively um this is we’ve
Seen pfl and belor both do this on their undercards this is set up to be an alcaton win it’s that it’s there’s no sense looking any further than that so if you can get a good alternate line on under 20 and under two and a half as a
Parlay piece uh I would not mind a sprinkle on that absolutely all right Clarissa Shields and Kelsey DeSantis so uh this fight they’ve now made a catch weight we wondered why and then we looked up how big Clarissa Shields is and then it made all the sense in the world this is a
165 Jim so heavy so heavy whoa and then we found that video then we found the video of her standing next to Kelsey D santis at that press conference and yikes Cela de santz weighed 145 at her last fight uh chrisa shields uh is obviously the big betting favorite what
Do you make of this fight I am terrified that Clarissa Shields is not in shape for this I am terrified that she hasn’t done a lot of MMA she did have another boxing match in between her last MMA fight I believe maybe two um but here’s the thing she’s still
Gonna win okay she’s still gonna win uh the santis wrestled in her first fight 11 years ago 11 years ago since then in her fights you have not seen a takedown nothing uh she got this last win against Caitlyn Nelson um she got a late knockout at the end of the first round
And she was getting whooped that entire round I mean she won 10 seconds of nine seconds of that fight the last nine seconds other than that she was losing she was getting pieced up not reacting to shot Wells she’s slow um I think Shields all day she probably finishes
During the first round to be honest with you yeah unless unless she takes Clarissa down in the first round that’s the only way she’s gonna get to round two and I just haven’t seen the wrestling in 11 years yeah set up fight yeah he always fade the the the person who’s supposed
To have the wrestling Advantage but they haven’t shown it in over a decade yeah I mean and the other thing is course the shields is so much bigger now yeah could you even think of getting her down uh tall tall tail now Clarissa Shields has gone to decision her last few boxing
Matches but you go back look they’re wearing those big gloves it’s boxing yeah it’s it’s completely different I’m with you all day under two and a half is plus Money Jim love it I do too I do too yeah yeah um uh up next bajio Ali Walsh
Technically o and O as a professional but uh you know he does have a lot of amateur fights and uh this is nice because we finally bet at all the domestic books you know this line should be available everywhere you really couldn’t find some of his lines uh as an
Amateur but you know make no mistake he’s got he’s got a lot of experience uh not fighting the best fighters in the world and uh we found a fight we found palo’s last fight where he won he is technically 1 and0 got the win in December not that impressive Jim is this
Going to be another Ali Walsh showcase this is going to be another Ali wal showcase but here is the problem that I have with this fight and I kind of have with Ali Walsh’s fights he’s always lined as a massive favorite and he’s not a flash knockout first round finisher
We’ve seen in his past two fights um his fights have kind of got extended I like to see that from a young fighter because we got to see his cardio um I don’t think he’s going to be in any sort of danger but the only way you could look
To bet this straight on its own would be a total but I don’t have a strong conviction either way um I do believe that his opponent is bad enough to be finished early um but Walsh’s shown patience and he’s shown a real it seems like a a real dedication to getting cage
Time he knows he needs cage time so he doesn’t Rush The Knockout when he when he tends to rush The Knockout you’ll see him identify that and pull back and he’ll step back to the center of the cage and kind of just work his boxing and kickboxing more and more from there
So really tough betting spot I mean we’re not in the business of parlaying minus a th000 favorites to get to minus 500 but if you have another play that you like that you need some juice on I think he’s a lock as far as a moneyline
Pick um and we know who they’re pushing here they’re they’re building a star and they’re going to keep building him after this fight yeah you’re right he he is actively you could just see he’s working on his patience like oh I could crush this guy in one minute nope let’s pull back let’s
Let’s get that I think it’s a great Point yeah don’t don’t rush out to bet this under one and a half if he goes full-blown like patience mode kind of playing with his food here a little bit you could be it could be really a bummer
When he knocks a guy out at the end of the second round and everyone’s sitting on the under one and a half uh ticket so it’s a really good point but yes spagio Ali Walsh all day long in this one now another interesting take on this also is
That he like I just said is working on his game don’t put it past that we see a takedown here guys at some point the great camp that he’s from and the smart fighter that he is at some point you have to test your wrestling ability well who better to
Test your wrestling ability against than an 0 and0 fighter making their Pro debut yeah so yeah I mean this could be the moment where we see his him try to do a little bit of wrestling and we’ve seen him shoot for takedowns and get clinch
Time I I think it’s coming and this is one of those moments where if you uh you put all your eggs in the basket on the KO prop oh you’re sitting there at the end of the night after a submission wondering how it happened yeah it wouldn’t surprise me one bit Yeah so
We’ve seen one fight from plaso he finished uh a guy but make no mistake plassio bad striking looking they ended up they ended up on the ground doing like the like the full-blown roll over roll over roll over just very sloppy uh he’s not very polished so all right let’s get
Into some some real true Bellator pfl matchups here Aaron Pico versus Gabriel Braga I’ll let you tell what’s going on with Braga and you’ve been a big Aaron Pico fan uh so let’s start with Braga let’s uh let’s go over what’s going on with him so Braga you know um had his
Championship fight in in pfl it was a rematch did not go well first loss of his career always a question mark right there how you respond after your first loss now granted he is young enough to make improvements but unfortunately he’s in a bad spot and uh you know my
Condolences to him he lost his father not too long ago and to the point where there was questions whether this fight was even going to happen um I would assume that the pfl had a conversation with with him and his camp and and they all agreed upon this him wanting to
Fight and I I could understand that but uh to lose your father who’s been in your corner since day one and uh have this match up against Aaron Pico is going to be a real tall task uh as far as Braga goes he’s got good standup he
Doesn’t have the most power in the world his knockout was against Marin morice so we can take power out of that equation um he’s more of a decision striking fighter not the best defensive wrestling out there either he’s serviceable but I don’t think he can change and decide
Where this fight is going to take place that Advantage is going to be in Pico’s corner from Bell tobell um moving on to Aaron Pico I have been a fan of this kid since he made his debut he has been around forever and he is still young and
He improves every single fight his last loss was because of an injury that he threw his opponent did nothing he just had his shoulder pop out on a punch and they were trying to pop it back in so he continue and just couldn’t do it um
Since then we’ve seen him just dog walk Gonzalez to that decision uh he absolutely destroyed Pedro Carval Carval destroyed him this man is no longer a boy he is a man and he is a man that has grown up inside MMA specifically not a wrestler not a striker he’s been doing
MMA since he’s a teenager and to me I I do not understand this line he opened a minus 800 favorite and he’s down to sub minus 300 now in spots um I don’t know if that’s money coming in on Braga because of the storyline but I love
Aaron Pico in this and I think after this fight you’re no longer gonna be able to not recognize who Aaron Pico is um the mainstream Bellator guys that don’t watch or PF UFC guys that don’t watch Bellator pfl they’re going to be surprised when they see this kid and uh
I think this is his mark towards a title shot this new organization the other thing about Braga that you know kind of gets swept under the rug okay he’s 12- one I mean listen his win against Peno was a split and Chris Wade was a split that’s you’re one
Judge you’re one judge on one round away from dropping uh some fight so you know yeah I I don’t see the danger in uh it you know again his finish was against Marlon rice I just don’t see the danger coming from his side it’s going to have
To be a lucky shot or Pico’s going to dog walk him for 15 Klay Collard and AJ mcke I have been banned from betting on Klay Collard fights uh I am I I yeah I just I I’m not allowed to do it anymore I I have said I don’t I I don’t
Really enjoy clay Collard fights um I mean his one against Shane Bergos was pretty exciting the oam was was was a good fight uh so I’m kind of coming around but yeah I’m not allowed to bet on it so I’ll let you I’ll let you take
This one uh Klay Collard and AJ mckm AJ mcke 21 and one what do you like in this fight this is one fight that I uh I can’t get to the window on anything to be honest with you uh from a betting perspective however I do think that this
Is an interesting matchup um Klay Collard great boxing great Fitness great Bodywork toughness IQ can be questionable at times and we really saw him make that Improvement this past season in pfl until he ran up against o um AJ mcke another guy I’ve watched for a long time
Coming up in weight all right not going to be cutting as much weight AJ is a fantastic wrestler and in his last fight we saw that grit that determination and that wrestling ability get him back into that fight he was losing round one decisively and he came back against
Sydney Outlaw and just poured it on through that fight and ended up getting himself a decision it was really a good great come back win um I would lean mcke in this fight just because I cannot have faith in Collard to make the correct decisions I I just I can’t have faith in
Him round two and round three to make the grappling decisions to get back to his feet I have a feeling that if he gets taken down out in the center of the cage that AJ can hold him down he really can um I think physical wise you’re
Going to see a lot more Dynamic movement from AJ and physical strength and klay’s going to be that gritty boxer but I would leave mck uh no bet for me no bet on the total um I think there’s better spots on this card yeah mck is a minus 265 so you
Have to love mcke to bet on this one and uh not quite there uh Thiago Santos and uh yelo Romero all you need to know about this fight is it’s minus 220 if you want over two and a half um two guys that I mean the only thing really say is
Just these guys you know their better days are behind him um you know I believe what it both both both him and Wilkinson tested positive yes so so You’ got Thiago Santos coming what how do you rule that when both guys shouldn’t you just leave it
Like well they were both on it so let’s just leave it as is so you got Thiago Santos uh who knows what we’re going to get from him uh he was it great in UFC there towards the end and then y Romero uh you know 63-year-old yel morero I’m
46 but you get the point uh loses neov but he did go to decision I mean Romero the dude is tough um I don’t see a knockout from either one of these guys for me the only way to possibly play it is to take it over and you know do
Something with it but I just the volume is not going to be there from either one of these guys I have no idea what the judges are going to do when both guys are throwing you know two and three shots a minute um it’s just going to be
A sloppy fight and I think after like the two-minute Mark the the threat of a knockout is just not going to be there so it’s minus 120 for Santos do you have any strong opinion on this fight I wouldn’t say it’s a strong opinion I think this is one of those fights where
Like you said there’s that dead over be careful okay you’re right these are these are two guys that every time they fight there is Shenanigans there’s always Shenanigans um the fact that yorel Romero was standing after that ncov fight was amazing because he was taking bombs and mof’s not known as his
Big brutal power puncher but the volume that nemov put on him the amount of big shots that that hit on Romero I don’t know what he’s made out of um you know Thiago Santos big injury concern again he got a guy with injury concerns are you real confident on a fight To Go
The Distance that’s a good point you just never know you can’t trust those knees um I heard someone uh uh close to him saying that he’s still trying to get back he’s not back and he never will be he will he will never be back to the
Fighter that he was against Jon Jones and we need to stop thinking that he will be um no again better spots to bet on this card this this is a pass from a betting perspective I do think that uh if Romero for one time in his career
Decides he wants to put his wrestling boots on this is the fight to do it but we can’t trust him to do that true so best way to not lose money is you know what’s you’re saying again you want the best way to make money is to not lose it
So there’s no no reason to force it on this one let’s move on to another guy who tested uh positive this is Bruno Capal Loa he’s a big- Time Underdog against nof um yeah like capoa seems to always be dependent on the big shot and listen
If he lands it in the past you know he he could do some damage I just don’t know now that he’s you know you know hopefully not or supposedly not taking the juice but you know last fight that uh was the last fight was ruled of no
Contest um he knocked he knocked him out but got to be honest Shuffle was landing on capoa and caposa you know caught him before that you know he lost by decision so tough spot to actually try and find a reason to bend on capoa like these guys coming off of positive test look
Terrible they look horrible awful um and I and I don’t care about some of them where you’re like well that that shouldn’t be a performance enhancing that was just an over-the-counter there’s something that just doesn’t make sense with it so nof 17 and two he’s the rightful big favorite um I you’re right
Just absolutely put it on Romero never in doubt so is there any reason to take caposa I don’t think there is a reason to take caposa but caposa could help out the bet that I’m thinking of making on this or looking into and that’s this
Fight not to go the distance yeah um we have a guy coming off a suspension who is also and all people have said about this is it’s neov going up to heavyweight let’s not forget that caposa was not a natural heavyweight either he is a former light heavyweight that moves
Up to heavyweight to get a speed Advantage he has great power but the way he’s been able to get his Knockouts his hand speed because these lumbering heavyweights could not get out of the way bad footwork neov has fantastic footwork he’s an In-N-Out Striker papaloa is going to have a hard time
Tracking him down the other factor is this from what I’ve heard could be a permanent move to heavyweight for nof um being one of fedor’s boys I have all faith in Fedor to get him with the right game plan to fight heavy weights not light heavyweights so I can trust
The camp I can trust The Fighter um and I have doubts on the other side so I I have a lean towards this fight not to go to dist and I think it it’s ncov uh after he beats him up a little bit he’s got a huge advantage in the grappling
Huge Advantage if he ends up on top of the grappling no doubt about it yeah I mean listen we like a lot of the you know we like a lot of the favorites but I some of these guys are kind of hard to make cases for uh when you’re you know
On this card so uh we’ll get to another one Ray Cooper and Jason Jackson uh Ray Cooper uh talk about out not looking good in his last fight I mean Derek Brunson the the corpse of Derek Brunson uh was able to lay on top of them for rounds two and three and get
The decision win Cooper just has these lunging punches that he landed on Brett Cooper who’s bad uh but couldn’t get the KO against Brunson the chinni guy in mixed martial arts at this point outside of Shannon Ross uh and then and then you know Los loses the decision to Carlos uh
Le I mean you got to go back to 2021 to find his last really big win he looked absolutely out of shape and awful against Brunson uh Brunson took him down and it’s not like Brunson looked really Nimble taking him down I know Brunson was a giant compared to him but it was
As clunky as it gets and if you’re struggling in the wrestling game against Derek Brunson uh just doesn’t really feel like Jason Jackson’s the guy want to face uh I love Jason Jackson in this matchup I I agree this fight also is a catchweight fight of 182 which is an odd
Number uh let’s not forget that Ray Cooper the former lightweight missed weight at 185 his last fight couldn’t even make weight um I think he’s here for a paycheck let’s also not forget that he is not supposed to be here this was supposed to be Mohammad in this this
Fight he’s the champion not happening pulls that one an injury they call up Ray Cooper to step up he gets a nice paycheck I have a feeling this could possibly be the last time that we see Ray Cooper unless there’s some big fights left on his contract because he’s
Look checked out in his last fights he has not looked even when he won he did not come in with the same Fitness the same level I mean he came out like a bull in a china shop because he knew that he could get that fight done um but
He is not the R Cooper that won the tournament yeah what four years ago five years ago it’s been a while and I think he’s here for a paycheck and this is gonna you know be a a highlight re stoppage for Jason Jackson in round two
Or three I see if submission in round two or three yeah I mean you just look at Jason Jackson I mean he’s so fast and so athletic you know he’s you know he’s in his prime you know took the O away from y slav amof so yeah it’s a it’s a
Good one and yeah I mean if Ray Cooper comes comes in if he comes in even remotely like the same shape he was in Brunson it’s just it’s going to look so bad like the eye test you’re just going to be like oh my God this is these guys
Don’t even look like they belong uh in their in there together Reay has a habit of accepting positions too he’s not one to tirelessly work to stuff that Tak down or get off the cage he will kind of take his time in those positions that’s going to afford Jackson to just rack up
All kinds of control minutes and dict take the fight so love love Jason Jackson as a pick uh impa Kai and Johnny eblin uh listen we love impa one of the more profitable Fighters that we’ve had over the last uh over the last run I
Mean we were on him when he jumped over to pfl like you know you look at his you know you’ve been on him since the Jared Gooden fight after the jar Goa fight we have called every impa fight correctly since absolutely absolutely uh comes off the win against uh Josh
Laa um you know it’s not been the greatest uh run of of competition um I thought you know when we watched the Josh svera fight we just thought it was just a unbelievably smart patient like he didn’t overextend he didn’t try to go too crazy I don’t know
If I don’t know if it was a if it was less rounds if he would have tried to get the finish and maybe cuz Josh was exhausted and impa looked great but it wasn’t like impa was just like a dominating almost you know had him knocked out a bunch of times and look
Like a Savage like he did against Hamlet um so we’ve seen him knock out Hamlet eh whatever uh this Johnny eblin though a little bit of a different Beast you know a lot more about eblin you followed him a lot more closely than I have it’s
Tough when you got a fighter like impa that we love we’re like man we made we made so much money off this guy we love him he was a Hidden Gem um but this uh this match up against Johnny eblin this is a brutal one for
Impa isn’t it it’s it’s tough I mean he he’s going up against what a lot of people say as the best fighter in this weight class in the world and I know it’s Bellator before everyone goes nuts about that but if you follow Johnny elin’s career he has every single thing
That you want if you’re building a championship caliber fighter I mean just everything the the build the the cardio the Striking is coming along the wrestling is just nonstop positional control and changes he keeps you saw off balance you’re always worried about that takedown um and he’s just a monster he
Really is a monster um impa again great fighter love him impa if you see this we love you but impa has fought a lot of time at 205 pounds this fight is not at 205 pounds this is at welterweight okay or middleweight um this is natural for
Eblin and I know impa fought at this before but you know you fight for a year and a half two years at light heavyweight your body naturally starts to conform to that weight class and I really have questions about this weight cut and what kind of uh input we’re
Going to get because a lot of that success in pfl was again based off of him being moral athletic having a great gas tank no worries whatsoever being faster you saw it in the hamlet fight I mean he was yeah light years ahead of Hamlet um Johnny Elam I think has him
Covered everywhere that being said impa could land a shot let’s face facts he could land a shot but this is Johnny Elum this is an interesting fight To Go the Distance these are two good Fighters these are two really good Fighters and I think impa’s good enough to survive if
It’s a wrestling match um and I know we can count on eing to work keep in mind Guys these are all uh three round fights these are not five round championship fights so you know that changes the handicap a lot the fact that we’re not getting five round championship fights
AB so I like Johnny emblin everybody likes Johnny emblin which terrifies us as always but that’s I I think he’s the goods I think he’s the goods I mean impa is certainly a you know he’s a he he can do it we’ve seen him um he’s got the
Talent uh and you’re right that is the big worry I to me this is the one fight where it’s like oh everyone’s on Johnny eblin it’s like oh no is this the one where it just sets up for Gigantic let down everyone’s parlay gets busted when Evin loses and because it’s co-main you
Don’t have any fights left except for one to make it up you know what I mean just feels like this if there is a fight on the card to absolutely just make it a rough night for everyone it is the Johnny eblin uh you know freight train
On bets on that one so uh guys don’t put them in all your parlays okay exactly not all of them remember break up your bets guys don’t yeah don’t go all in uh we’re going to break down the main event if you guys could do me a favor just hit

MMA profits and save up for this uh pfl UFC card so we’re having a great seven days we’re having a great 2024 made 91 units in 2023 5% best bet we have had not had one of these in over seven months on wager talk so uh really really
Good betting up opportunity for the pfl and UFC card that is over at wagertalk.com just look for Andy Lang’s profile and you can grab at that all right Jim it is time for the main event Rara Ryan Bader you know I don’t think all of the
Favorites are going to win and if I’m looking at a a really really capable Underdog it’s not a huge Underdog Ras plus 124 I think he’s got a real chance here man this guy is just the power he doesn’t need to hit you multiple times he just needs to to catch
You once um listen I’m not going to listen mace green takes out but knocking out goov man it was just uh that was that was something that was just really really impressive he’s gotten better I mean last loss was uh no shame in losing that one yeah yeah no shame in losing to
Deah so um I like rera I I don’t want to say baer’s you know like over the hill or too old but guy’s 40 um you can say it yeah I mean yeah he’s he’s 40 um okay he beat Fedor and Che I mean come on let’s go down the
List gentlemen okay ladies and gentlemen we have guys that we haven’t we haven’t seen in the Big Show in seven eight nine 10 years here the heavyweight division of Bellator has not been the murderous row of heavyweight divisions we’ve spoken about the heavyweight divisions in their status
And bellor honestly I think pfl has a way better heavyweight division than B I agree Ian this guy fought Leo to Mach like just a few years ago a light heavyweight fought him at light yeah anth Johnson I mean yeah I I so I I’m guessing the I’m
Guessing we think the that Bader’s a favorite because of the what holding down take him down wrestling because of wrestling pedig yes so but if he can’t lights out sorry for F’s gonna knock him out if it’s on the feet so so I I I like
H on fera in this one at plus money here um yeah where where you at on this fight so this fight is quite interesting um because again everything that we stated here could lead you to a very strong opinion on either side um this is
A pick them fight if I’ve ever seen one if any line is not a pick them I have nothing wrong with anybody chasing plus money in this fight okay because there is no way this fight should be lined any differently than even money on both sides whoever realm this fight takes
Place in they’re gonna wash the other guy so an interesting way to play this fight to me and I know people are going to say well Ryan Bader is not finishing anybody okay you know Ferrera can’t stop and take that right now over one and a
Under one and a half is minus 130 I’m going to be very interested when the totals all drop because I think this is a really good parlay piece to not go the distance really good par piece I don’t think Ferrera can withstand Bader on top
Of him for three routs I also know I don’t think I know Ryan Bader cannot stand with Ferrera for five minutes yeah okay so if this is on the feet in the first round fer takes him out if it gets out of round one and there’s wrestling
In the first round Ryan bber Bader’s probably going to end him in two or three I I I think this fight could go not the distance here and I think that’s a safe bet but Chase the Plus money it’s just it’s silly to have any other line
Than that um f ferrera’s leg kicks are gonna be interesting Ryan Bader has a very Herky jerky style and he likes to Blitz forward that lines him up for a knee that lines him up for those straight punches that Ferrera throws right down the middle we’ve seen him
Throw those uppercuts before he got a knockout with a absolutely destructive upper uppercut in pfl if you guys haven’t seen th those fights please go back and watch it’s they’re amazing um so all of ferrera’s tools are dangerous for Bader they really are and like I
Said if this gets on the ground I just don’t see how he can stop Bader from getting to mount or back mount in a dominant position where he could finish yeah it’s a good look to just take you’re right wait wait until the KN go the distan is and just just probably lay
It on that one so yeah I mean if if the odds were switched if it was like Bader plus 125 you’d probably say well nice value on Bader if he gets r on the ground it’s probably going to be Bader’s fight all day so yeah we’re strictly
Playing the numbers on this one but just stylistically man just I just like Bader’s going to have to avoid the big knockout and then get fra down and then like you know win over the RS you just can’t he can’t afford to get popped once otherwise it’s going to be over so I
Like plus money on a guy like uh like ferera to to take care of business at plus money to get the knockout there so um yes we like alcaton we like Clara Shields beaj Ali Walsh we do like Aaron Pico uh Klay Coller AJ mcke little bit
Of a tossup I think maybe you leaning a little bit towards uh mck but that should be a really good one Thiago Santos and Romero yikes not really sure we’re getting the window on that one uh cof over Capal Loa Jason Jackson over Cooper probably eblin over impa but
Don’t be surprised if impa’s game in that in that uh in that one and then uh fra Bader really really close fight should be a really good one so um it is Jim like it’s like 13 hours of fights you start you start at 100 PM eastern

Thank you Andy & Jim, awesome breakdown!
Thanks for this bros
Is Ferreria vs bader scheduled for 5 rounds?
Good stuff guys thx! I'm already on bader, romero & the shields under. With ya bummer to fade Impa, but i already took Eblen here
I don’t think Romero cares anymore 😂😂 it looks like he fights just to do it now not to win
How do y’all not love McKee to win this matchup lol collard can’t wrestle with him it’s really that simple
I'm rooting for impa to be an upset 🎉🎉
I say ray cooper knocks jackson out 😴
