Aleksa Camur

Angelo leans toward Aleksa Camur as an underdog, noting his technical striking and takedowns. He is concerned about Camur's two-year layoff but finds +160 appealing. He suggests the UFC might be feeding Tanner Boser to build up Camur. Angelo plans to watch weigh-ins and may bet if Camur looks good, comparing it to Derrick Lewis's return. He criticizes Boser's -185 price given his 1-4 record and recent knockout loss.

Big Brady calls this the worst fight on the card and has very low confidence. He notes Camur hasn't fought in two years and could have improved, but it's a shot in the dark. He picks Camur by decision with zero confidence, saying if Camur looks the same it's a close fight, but if improved he could beat Boser. He admits he wants nothing to do with this fight.

Cody picks Boser based on volume and cardio, expecting a 15-minute decision. He notes Camur's poor cardio and tendency to fade, and believes Boser's leg kicks and output will win the later rounds. He acknowledges Camur's durability and early power, but thinks Boser's gas tank and volume are decisive.

Daniel Levi leans toward Aleksa Camur, citing the upside of a young fighter with a two-year layoff to improve. He notes that Boser is a finished product who gave up his speed advantage by dropping to light heavyweight, and that Boser's debut at 205 was poor. Levi is concerned about Camur's potential shoulder injury but thinks if healthy, Camur's wrestling and athleticism could trouble Boser. He has zero interest in laying a price on Boser and sees this as a dog-or-pass fight.

James sides with the dog Camur. He notes Boser is coming off a first-round KO and may be chinny or tentative. Camur is gritty, walks forward, and could get takedowns against Boser, who is terrible off his back. He says if Boser fights a grappler, you bet the grappler.

Boser has combination striking, output, and leg kicks, but struggles with takedown defense. Camur likes to crash the pocket but has been out with nerve damage. Boser should keep on the move, use footwork and leg kicks to damage Camur from distance. I like the over 2.5 rounds most, but no real conviction. Give me Boser by decision.

Paul leans towards Camur at plus money, citing his youth, training with Stipe Miocic, and potential improvements during his two-year layoff. He thinks Cody may have overrated Boser's durability and notes Camur's power. However, he is not confident enough to bet it.

Angelo picks Nicolae Negumereanu, agreeing with Jacob that the odds are flipped. He notes Negumereanu's 100% finish rate and aggressive style, but also acknowledges his lack of head movement and looping shots. He thinks Camur's straight punches could be a problem, but still picks Negumereanu as the underdog. He would not bet on Camur at -240.

Big Brady is not impressed with Camur but thinks he has a massive speed advantage and is the better striker. He is concerned about Camur's takedown defense after being taken down by William Knight. He predicts Camur wins by decision but would not lay -250 on him.

Cody picks Camur, dismissing Negumereanu's inflated record and poor UFC debut. He notes Negumereanu's cardio and wrestling were non-existent, and despite a two-year layoff, he doesn't expect significant improvements. Camur is not great but should win against this level of competition.

Daniel Levi picks Aleksa Camur, but is not confident due to the high price. He notes that Camur has fought better competition, beating Justin Ledet and William Knight, while Negumereanu has faced very low-level opponents. However, he acknowledges that Camur is still green and has holes in his game, and that laying a big price on him is risky. He thinks Camur has more physicality and tools, but is not fully convinced.

Jacob is extremely confident in Negumereanu, calling him the lock of the week. He highlights Negumereanu's suplexes, powerbombs, and 100% finish rate, and questions why he is a +205 underdog. He believes Negumereanu will take Camur down and finish him. He has Negumereanu in his DraftKings lineup at $6,900.

The host picks Aleksa Camur, believing he is the more complete fighter with takedown ability and a solid upside. He notes Negumereanu's sketchy regional competition and long layoff, and expects Camur to grind out a decision by taking the fight to the ground. He thinks Camur will play it safe and avoid Negumereanu's power. He mentions Camur's potential but acknowledges the William Knight loss, though he sees this as a favorable matchup.

Paul picks Camur, agreeing with Cody that Negumereanu is not UFC level. He notes Negumereanu's poor performance against Safarov and long layoff. Paul suggests the over 2.5 rounds as a better play, as both fighters have questionable cardio and finishing ability.

Big Brady picks Camur, stating he is the better fighter despite Knight's power. He notes Camur has good durability and has finished 80% of his wins. He attributes Camur's unimpressive UFC debut to octagon jitters and expects a second-round knockout.

Daniel Levi picks William Knight for the upset, comparing him to a green Derrick Lewis with heart and finishing ability. He believes Knight will capitalize on Camur's inexperience and tense striking, eventually finding a finish. He notes Camur looked tense in his debut and has fought weak competition.

The host leans toward Aleksa Camur but is not confident, calling the fight a pass. He notes that Camur has a better training camp and may be more active, but both fighters are green with many unknowns. He suggests the over 1.5 rounds is the best bet, as both may feel each other out.

Daniel picks Aleksa Camur by split decision, but is very hesitant. He notes that Camur has power and athleticism but has faced low-level competition, while Ledet has seen a higher level of the sport. He mentions that contender series winners win 60% of the time in their UFC debut, but advises not going big until Camur proves himself.
