We are locking this play in early to get the best lines before people start looking at those future events.
Shevchenko vs Grasso
Quite honestly I think Shevchenko is better than Grasso everywhere. Shevchenko is 12-2 in last 14 with both losses to Bantamweight champ Nunes. She will likely be the bigger fighter in the cage having fought up at Bantamweight and Grasso is a lot smaller and less powerful. I expect Shevchenko to mix in a lot of takedowns and ground control and is so technical and precise I don't see openings for Grasso. Shevchenko was dealing with an ankle/foot injury in her previous matchup and still managed to win. Now being fully healed I expect her to put on a statement and potentially look for the 3rd fight with Amanda. Grasso likes to throw jabs and combinations then get out of range but Shevchenko is not going to let that happen. I also believe Grasso doesn't have the physical strength to take Shevchenko down or keep her down.
Usman vs Edwards
Usman was dominating and coasting to a decision victory before getting caught by Edwards. Usman is so well rounded and his striking has looked better with every fight. His cardio is unquestionable and whilst Edwards has good cardio he struggled to match Usman's pace. Edwards mixed in some wrestling in fight 1 and even though he got a couple mainly through the element of surprise it sapped his gas tank. Usman is great at making adjustments and I expect him to nullify the areas Edwards had success in. Usman can mix in the takedowns as well as the powerful jab mixed with forward pressure. The UK crowd doesn't worry me too much as they are not normally as supportive of Edwards and have booed him in previous fights. Usman will be super focused on righting the wrong and I expect him to dominate again.
*Play is a 5% play up to -170. Then becomes a 4% play. As always, shop around as different shops will have different prices on these fights.
