Point numero dos, Yes he is kind of fast, watch that dempsey fight, do you see the overhand right? I seriously needed three times to watch that punch. He got explosive takedowns as well. So he is quick, while GV is very slow, so the speed advantage is significant. But, im not sold on Latifi after round 1, cause he almost always finishes fight, so its a bit like nunes. Very good in the beginning, but hard to examine round 2 and round 3 due to lack of data. But....to go from the point to say, since Latifi may slow down, and perform worse, to say that villante will cruise its a tough sell in my book. -400 no... but def value at -180 up to maybe -220 IMO.
If Villante wins, he most likely wins by KO, maybe in the first or second round. But im not sure he can do enough to win a decision. Latifi got pretty good kicks as well, and they come really fast, and he can probably mix striking, legkicks and explosive takedowns to win two rounds, pretty clearly. So you cant like Villantes chances here. But, all fiights were you havent seen a guy go the full three rounds with good opposition is a liability, no doubt. So I understand where the skepticism come from.
