Pretty confident in Adesanya. 4oz gloves change everything; Pereira looks way more awkward blocking shots with the high guard in mma, and he just struggling navigating the cage. Bruno Silva didn't have much trouble pressing the action and landing shots clean, so I don't expect a well-adapted sniper like Adesanya to either. Plus, the animosity should make for a finish here.
Esparza really is being underestimated going into this, but I don't think that's going to be enough to warrant a win for her. Zhang demolishes.
Also jumped over to the Edgar side because I've got that feeling for it.
