WAR BENNY!
Interesting stylistic match up here. Benny has been all too content to stand and trade with his last few opponents. But he has to know that he has a clear disadvantage here. Barboza is much faster, has cleaner striking, and a wider array of strikes to work with. We will see how it goes down. Not saying Benny can't hang with Barbosa on the feet but it certainly wouldn't be his easiest path to victory.

He's gotta be ready to trade either way either to set up his TD's or if Barboza's TDD is on point. I think he has the power to at least wobble Barboza

Yeah, and it's not like Dariush is some grapple-brawler, his striking has looked pretty on point his past few fights.

Well yeah, thats obvious. Benny's striking is great, its just that Barboza is on another level. Would be smart for Benny to set up some shots, not too familiar with his wrestling game. Cant remember him really shooting double legs on a guy, I feel he is more of a clinch / trip TD guy.

Considering he's beaten a former champ I thought Barboza would get a higher ranked fighter but oh well.
