Yea cody g. , amateur or not has felt defeat twice. Young and green for sure.. But Almeida has quite the flashy kicks and nice angles. There will be a feeling out process with two great strikers. Cody will win round 1. Almeida will eat some shots find his groove, keep it close in 2nd an set him up in the 3rd! I'm predicting a 3rd round ko/tko for Almeida.
Lets keep in mind this is a 5 round fight. I mean lets be real how many people jumped on that Melvin Manhoef last week over 1.5 Rounds. 5 Rd. Main event with a pretty powerful striker in Melvin and a pretty awesome striker in Rafael Carvalho factoring in Melvins chin, under 1.5 was a no-brainer. Melvin has 40+ fights with 4 decisions. Carvalho 12-1 (now 13-1) has been too the judges 3 times.... Just sayin' those 5 rd. fights change the game plan, the fight, and the mindset. I know completely different matchup but I really think this fight goes over 1.5, Almeida+over is the play
