UFC Edmonton: Louis Jourdain vs. Timmy Cuamba: Prediction
My prediction is a decision win for Jourdain over Cuamba because he’s the more active fighter and fired more volume. Jourdain also mixes punches and kicks while staying at the distance he wants.
Meanwhile, Cuamba is a very powerful counterpuncher who lures opponents to come in and overcommit before he strikes back with a lethal punch. However, he’s a slow starter and needs the fight to come to him to be effective.
With Jourdain’s measured approach and disciplined defense, I think he’ll land more strikes and frustrate Cuamba at the same time. Though the cardio and durability of Jourdain remain to be seen, his output seems promising and economical.
