UFC 264 (Welterweight): #2 Burns v. #4 Thompson

Who will WIN this FIGHT?

#2 Gilbert Burns (BRA)

#4 Stephen Thompson (USA)

 

Current odds:

Gilbert Burns: (+140)

Stephen Thompson: (-170)
.

• The thing about Stephen Thompson is, outside of getting shockingly KO’d by Anthony Pettis in a fight he was otherwise entirely dominating, there’s a real strong argument that ‘Wonderboy’ hasn’t lost a fight since Matt Brown back in 2012. Big punchers who are willing to sit back and wait on him at range can force an incredibly boring point fight out of him that essentially comes down to a judging coin toss

• Burns’ best chance on the feet is with his powerful hook and it’s easier said than done to consistently catch and hurt Thompson.
