After winning 20 consecutive fights, 5-foot-4 Jimmie Rivera stepped up in competition and has dropped three of his last four fights. He's lost two in a row, as well as a KO to Marlon Moraes 33 seconds into the first round. He's a slight favorite, but he hasn't fought in over a year, and this is another tough matchup against Cody Stamann (19-2-1). Stamman is a good striker (4.51 significant strikes per minute, 49% accuracy rate) and a superior wrestler, 5-1-1 in UFC action. He's 2-0-1 in his last three UFC fights, and in the draw against Yadong Song, Stamman appeared to do more than enough to get the victory, but the judges ruled otherwise. In his last bout, Stamman had a unanimous decision over Brian Kelleher made even more impressive by the fact that his younger brother had passed away a few days prior. For this fight, Stamman is younger and has a two-inch height advantage. Play Cody Stamann to win the fight and also play UNDER the total.
