Montel is a long lengthy fighter. I can see him clipping Arce early. Arce is one of the most underrated fighters. Jackson will get tested but I can really see him adapting.

Ulberg looked phenomenal today. I was dumb to no pick him. Switched my pick here cause I thought Negu could give him some problems with the pressure, but boy I was really wrong lol

That takedown at the end was something I didn't expect. Arce fights defensively solid right now as well.
