And honestly Brady could beat JDM, Brady is a strong wrestler and JDM hasn't fought grappler nearly as good as Brady, And JDM has been take down in a few of his fight

I just think jack hits way to hard for someone with such poor striking defence Brady might out wrestle him for 2 rounds I still think jack would knock him out .

Sean should be a -300 but y'all talking like he should be +300. Look at their resume, look who they fought. Sean has fought guys better than Jack, Jack hasn't fought anyone close to Sean. Look how easily Emeev took Jack down and nearly subbed him.
Sean WILL take Jack down, and when he does, Jack will be finished.
Brady 1st round choke, there's levels.

JDM has the touch of Death in his jab straight. Brady almost got KO’d by Chiesa’s straight. Not to mention - wasn’t Brady’s nose fixed recently? Should cause him problems.
JDM death touch Rd. 1

Sean has never been challenged in his life, in training or in a fight, he froze.. it was tough to see.
That being said, JDM is nowhere near Belal, not even a fraction. There's levels, JDM is not there and you'll all see
04.24.2023 | 11:10 AM ET
Sean is a far better grappler than both those guys, JDM isn't escaping that position vs Sean and he's not stopping the take down.
Punches chance nothing more.
04.24.2023 | 11:12 AM ET
Dude said "there's levels to this" like JDM is anywhere near Belal or Brady level. Belal has the wrestling to keep it standing, Jack doesn't.
Easy fight

And before people get mad at me, I think JDM and Brady will main event the prelims, The UFC normaly put the 4th or 5th biggest fight on the card at this spot, I think it a perfect main event of the prelims for a card like this, But if they want to put the 5 best fight on the main card, Put it on it

I'm actully not sure who to pick, I think JDM, But I don't think he should be a big favourte, Brady isn't going to be elite, But I think he be a solid gatekeeper to the elite unless he improve his standup, Most of the top guys at 170 have really good takedown defence, I think if he can stop Brady from outgrappling him, JDM be champ
Just thinking about it, It actually pretty good matchmaking, Prospect against gatekeeper

If he didn't have that experience, I think JDM KO's him round 1 no problem. Will be very excited to see the adjustments Brady has made since losing to Belal.
I'm actually a little surprised people are just writing Brady off and already calling him a gatekeeper. He lost literally 1 fight to arguably the divisions #1 contender and is only 30. He couldn't have picked a tougher fight to take coming off a KO loss either so he has a real opportunity to prove a point here.
