I personally think it is an awful match up for Bader. I dont think Bader will be able to get Machida down and if he does I dont think he will be able to keep him there. Machida will be too elusive on his feet and Bader is prone to leaving openings. Im a big fan of both guys so wont be disappointed either way. I definitely think there is good value on Varner and feel that he should be a slight favorite. Good luck on your bets BIGDAY !
