Prediction: wrong Sterling   wrong Decision  

2 ways I see this fight going. 1) Marlons power kicking and punching from the outside causes Aljo to become tentative and wait on his opportunities too much, which leads to a 29-28 Moraes dec 2) Aljo is able to use his range and disrupt Moraes on the feet, he darts in with confidence and forces his combos onto Moraes, as opposed to a soft point style where his strikes aren't entirely committed. He gets the takedown and has a round where he is working for different positions with little ground and pound and Moraes defends but doesn't do much to the Funk Master in the process. 2 rounds Aljo in a close decision.
