Why Bet on Thiago Santos
Thiago Santos is a UFC Veteran, being in the promotion since 2013, and having fought some of the best of the best they have had to offer in both middleweight and light heavyweight.
The Sledgehammer is coming in with a record of 21 wins and 9 losses. He comes into this fight on a 3 fight losing streak against some big names in the division.
The Brazilian fighter has a ton of experience under his belt and is always a dangerous opponent to be facing.
Why Bet on Johnny Walker
Johnny Walker made his way into the UFC with a victory in the Dana White Contender Series and has had a good run so far, with 4 wins and 2 losses in the UFC, to get his MMA Record to 18 Wins and 5 Losses.
Walker got a rebound win from his two-fight losing streak and is looking forward to getting another victory and maybe even another addition into his highlight reel once he gets back into the cage.
Final Betting Analysis: Santos vs. Walker
The future could be even brighter for Walker, as going up against an aging Thiago Santos could be perfect timing for Walker to pick up a career highlight win.
This will, however, be a huge test for Walker, and lots of heavy shots, clinching, and grappling should be expected from these two powerful fighters at 205 pounds.
This is a close fight and a toss-up at some level, but given the explosiveness starting to lack in Santos, it will play into Walker’s game.
After seeing Santos’ hindered performance against Rakic, it seems that age and injuries are finally catching up with him.
We are picking Walker to get the upset win, as he seems to be the more athletic and faster fighter.
If Walker manages to be efficient with his energy, we can see him winning this fight by decision, even by finish if he makes his strikes count.
