I'm not saying it will be enough vs Matthews but Matthews is not the most consistent fighter nor does he react well to adversity.
I think he's experienced enough to survive the blitz and take over the fight but fighters like Flowers always brings volatility to the table.

Of course it's a short notice UFC debut at high altitude and he goes balls to the wall from the get go so I don't anticipate he will have more than a round to find a KO before he's spent.

Jan Błachowicz, TKO, R2
Polish ground and pound.
Chiesa vs. Holland
Michael Chiesa, DEC
If Holland doesn't find the knockout, I think this will look like Chiesa vs Magny. Holland can be held down and Chiesa is a very aggressive grappler.
