Phillipe Nover made a name for himself by making it to the lightweight finals of TUF: Team Nogueira vs. Team Mir. He was defeated in the finals by the undefeated Efrain Escudero. Other than that he really doesn’t really have any notable bouts.
Kyle Bradley is a knockout artist who I definitely think is being undervalued at +300. Although he doesn’t have any wins in the UFC, his two losses came against Chris Lytle and Joe Lauzon. Both of whom definitely are not push overs. Eight of Bradley’s twelve wins have come by knockout. This combined with the extra fight experience he has compared to Nover makes him an easy pick for me at +300.
I don’t think that Bradley will stay at +300, so if you like him at those odds, I would recommend making the bet right now. I’m not sure what the result of this fight will be, but I expect Bradley to feel the fear and do it anyway.
Fun Fact: This is the only UFC fight I can where I don’t think either guy has a well known nickname. Am I wrong?
My Pick: Kyle Bradley (+300)
