Blanco is one of my all-time least favorite fighters. Never seen a fight in which he didn't cheat more than once.

Seems like a fight that Skelly will look to get to the ground early. He's got a nice amount of wins via Sub and Blanco has lost by Sub more than any other method. Looks like an early to mid-fight sub coming.

Round 1
Watching Skelly almost get KTFO by Kevin Souza gives me little confidence in him against a dynamic counter wrestler like Blanco. What might give Skelly an edge is his toughness and scrambling ability, something that he must be on point with against Blanco who is levels above him in athleticism, striking and speed. I think this could look a lot like his fight with Bektic.

IDK, in Blanco's last fight he got tapped out in round 1 by a guy who makes bantamweight and took the fight on short notice. I think Souza is more powerful and dangerous than Blanco who seems to be a bit of a head case with no cardio.

Luke Sanders is a serious prospect, I'd give him serious consideration against Skelly as well
