Name: Charles Rosa
Opponent: Kevin Aguilar
Odds: +174 (bet $100 to win $174)
It’s worth noting going into this fight that Kevin Aguilar has some pretty solid takedown defense. However, I’m less impressed by what happens when he gets taken down. Against Dan Ige, Aguilar looked uninspired trying to get off of his back and took some damage.
Rosa is not the type of guy who lets you spend long periods of time with him on the mat (unless you’re Bryce Mitchell and a freak on the mats). He hunts for subs quickly and particularly makes people pay in scrambles.
Combining Rosa’s finishing ability with that aforementioned punishment that Aguilar takes on the mat, and this is a reasonable looking plus-money play.
