9.20Tip and bets
Bookmaker analysts consider Pimblett the clear favorite of the upcoming match. But, in their opinion, Chandler will also have a good chance of success. The odds on an Englishman are quite tempting. However, this is held back by how unpredictable Chandler is as a fighter and the fact that he is the most violent and chaotic opponent Pimblett has ever faced. The American will have an advantage in striking technique, he will be able to break through to the opponent's chin and inflict damage. Pimblett's advantage on the ground is more significant than Chandler's advantage in standing. The Englishman is epic in submitting, he knows how to look for them perfectly. And Chandler's defense against submissives is pretty good. He held off Oliveira for a long time in his decisive defeat last year. It is worth paying attention to the total number of rounds. The fight won't go the whole distance.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 rounds in 1.85
