1.5U – Chidi Njokuani win by KO/TKO @ +120
Chidi Njokuani is a high-level striker with 14 KO/TKOs on his record. He’ll be taking on Rhys McKee who is still searching for his first UFC win on his second stint in the organization.
Both fighters are coming off a loss and may potentially be fighting for their UFC careers. Chidi is a high-level kickboxer with precision and power. On the other side, McKee is an exciting fighter who will continue to come forward until he breaks his opponent. Both fighters have styles that can cancel each other out.
Being said, I favor Chidi in this spot and I even like him to win by KO/TKO. The way to beat Chidi is by wrestling him or wearing on him with wrestling. McKee doesn’t wrestle, and the chances for McKee to continue to walk Chidi down is low considering he absorbs almost 10 SS/Min. At the end of the day, defense isn’t at the forefront of McKee’s mind and that is a tough ask for McKee to absorb that many strikes against someone who has KO power like Chidi.
