Silva has an immature fighting IQ, loses to himself. Throwing dry spinning heel kicks without setting them up just looking for a highlight instead of winning the fight

I think AoriQ is the bigger and better fighter. But hittable. And my main concern is whether the Altitude will affect him if he has to defend wrestling. 

Not too sure what the geography of Mongolia is like but I am guessing it's at elevation too.

Also Perrin talking about overcoming depression etc. That rarely ends well in fights

@danromanick I agree, especially since he can work with cejudo to fix his takedown defense. He’s gonna out wrestle Perrin

I wonder if brits gets it for free with BT Sports or maybe that's where you're at.
