Khamzat Chimaev By Finish (-190)
What Khamzat has accomplished in his early MMA career is pretty remarkable. In 4 UFC bouts, he has only been hit one time, finished all 4 fights, and cashed 4 performance bonuses. He finished each one of his fights prior to joining the UFC as well, and is a 2 time Swedish gold medalist in wrestling. That being said, Gilbert Burns is a big step up in competition and this will certainly be the toughest test yet for Khamzat. We are rolling with a 2 unit bet on Khamzat to pass this test, and keep the finish streak going. When you breakdown the numbers, Khamzat is more the more dangerous striker in terms of significant strikes landed per minute (averaging 8.68) to Gilbert Burns (3.12). In terms of striking defense, Khamzat has the edge, and for grappling, Khamzat averages double the amount of takedowns per 15 minutes (4.65). Again, take those numbers with a grain of salt due to the limited sample size and difference in strength of of opponents. The win by finish can be found at DraftKings. It includes any knockout (KO/TKO), submission, or DQ. The only method it does not cover is a win by points/decision.
