Do you see either Gustafsson or Teixeira being a challenge to DC and Jones? -Eddie, New Jersey
I don’t think so. I think Jones would defeat Gustafsson easier in a rematch than he did in their first outing. The same goes for Jones/Teixeira and Gustafsson/Cormier. The only potential matchup that hasn’t happened is Cormier versus Teixeira, and I do believe Cormier would handily defeat the Brazilian, despite the fact that I believe Teixeira is an elite-level light heavyweight.
Hey Gabe! Could you please give me two prop bets you really like. Hoping to hit at least one! -Nathan, Seattle, WA
