This is the official discussion thread for Spicely vs. Stewart. Let's see what you've got.

H

Seems like a favorable matchup for spicely. He's been outdone in his own game, but Stewart hasn't shown the pop to really make him pay or the defense to prevent getting handled yet.

Darren Stewart win via KO in rd 1 OR Eric Spicely win via submission in rd 2. I'm actually leaning on Darren getting the KO win. Eric isn't consistent... mma math says eric spicely wins 8/10x and all 8x by submission .... but I think there is going to be an upset. Upset? maybe. Confidence: 20% <-- would not bet on this fight... it's safer to bet this fight ending by stoppage. I would not advice having them in my parlays. Single bet only. I think there is money to be made by picking Darren Stewart. Darren is explosive in rd 1 & he isn't that bad of a fighter... only his ground game & endurance needs improvement... which is quite a deficiency.

I think Spicely takes another early submission. Darren could catch him, but I don't know he puts him away with one shot. He may have to jump on him to finish with ground and pound, and that gives Spicely even more opportunity to sweep, take that back and sink a submission in. Darren's back defense leaves a lot to be desired and Spicely has a very nice back take and rnc game.

Kill or be killed fight featuring two very beatable/flawed guys. Spicely with a quick takedown > RNC combination, inside 2mins.

Expect Spicely to avoid the big shot and get it to the ground pull of the submission win.

Upset ingredients: DS is 0-3 in last UFC outings. DESPERATE, combined with his Fast starts,and a opponent with a suspect chin. I think DS gets it done early. ES just gets caught.
