As for this next fight. Jourdain may well hurt Gracie but as we’ve seen many times. Elite grapplers get hurt and intentionally drop to their back to recover. Kron can do that and last to a decision loss because so many people are so scared of following them there. Fight to go the distance is longer odds than picking either guy to win and neither guy gets finished . I think Jourdain is only worth betting on if your picking decision. He also has pretty bad takedown defence and I think Gracie has worked on his boxing a lot
