UFC Seattle: Navajo Stirling vs. Bruno Lopes: Prediction
With the lack of head movement of Lopes, I predict a TKO/KO finish for Stirling. Lopes is a very hittable target and walks through a straight line whenever he puts pressure against his opponents. This could help Striling set up his atomic punches.
The power, accuracy, and quickness of Stirling should give Lopes a problem, especially with the kickboxing background of the Kiwi fighter. Striling doesn’t need to put on the pressure against Lopes because he’ll be the one coming in forward.
