love the matchup, but sad someone has to lose. Tumenov just seems to have the higher ceiling and has beaten better competition. Both guys are durable though so I'm expecting a somewhat close decision.

I think 93% for Tumenov might be a little too high. Edwards is one of the better strikers Albert will have fought. For Edwards, he's usually had to defend TD's in the UFC where Tumenov has been matched with more strikers. So don't be surprised to see Edwards open up. I am considering an Edwards pick.

Tumenov beat Larkin, that was a very close fight but still, I don't think Edwards compares.

Yeah, they're not the same opponent for Albert, just thought he had a better shot than 7%.

@mikeyg Sorry to disagree. Larkin is a great striker as we got to see him put on a straight up clinic against Magny. I also had Tumenov winning 29-28 over Larkin too in a very close fight.

Now look at Edwards reume since joining the UFC; He's 3-2 in the UFC with his only finish coming against Seth Baczynski who's no longer with the promotion. His other 2 wins were against guys that are no longer in the UFC either, Dom Waters and Pawlak and those fights also went to a Decision.

Tumenov on the other hand is 5-2 in his UFC career and since his first ever fight against Alcantara which he lost he's come a long ways. With quality wins Larkin and a finish over another good fighter Alan Jouban and a decent win over Musuke who really wasn't that bad at all.

Keep in mind Tumenov is only 24 years old and he'll continue to get better. But both Rocky Edwards and Tumenov share a common trait, they both have hard ways to go against strong grapplers.

Tumenov, IMO, is gonna have his way with Edwards since this will be contested on the feet and they won't have to worry about grappling at al;l in this one. The only surprise to me is Tumenov is only -250, he's got great value there and I think he should be a larger favorite than that, around -375 is what I would handicap this one at.  Tumenov R1 KO

Really didn't expect Edwards to grapple so well.
