AJ Fletcher vs Ange Loosa Fight Odds
AJ Fletcher -155 vs Ange Loosa
Fight is at 170 lbs and is +100 to end inside the distance.
AJ Fletcher did not have the UFC debut many envisioned. He lost a wildly entertaining decision to Matthew Semelsberger. We saw recently just how durable and how much of a gas tank Semelsberger possesses in his most recent fight with Alex Morono. Fletcher will look to once again build on the flyng knee knock out on DWCS. That was the fight that got him signed to the UFC in the first place.
He may not be the better striker in this matchup, but he will be the more dynamic one. Fletcher will not be the fighter pressuring more often, but he will have opportunities to land the big actions he likes to throw. He is also a strong wrestler, and I do believe he will be able to use variety in his game plan. He will be able to land takedowns in this fight. While we have seen mistakes from Fletcher in the past, I do not believe this opponent that is one that could capitalize on said mistakes, even if they were made.

Ange Loosa is a well built and physically strong striker. He does not possess the real power one might think from his appearance. Loosa will look to keep the fight upright, and will be the forward moving fighter. He has landed sound volume in each of his first two UFC fights, but he has been hit at an alarming rate. Loosa, in two losses, has absorbed an insanely high 249 significant strikes over 30 minutes. That works out to nearly 8.5 absorbed per minute. Loosa will have to shore up his defense and keep this fight upright if he is going to keep it competitive.
I think this is a really good spot for Fletcher with quite a favorable betting line. Fletcher has both round winning tools and finishing upside going for him in this matchup. If for some reason the striking is not going well for him, he has the option to take the fight down. He can be relentless with that wrestling when he needs or wants to be. We will likely see takedowns even if the striking is going smoothly. In any event, Fletcher at -155 is a great value to start the betting night.
Betting Pick: Fletcher -155
