Changho Lee vs. cortavious Romanous UFC on ESPN 65 Preview

Lee (10-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC) went on his path to the UFC run and won four times in a row, including his official promotional debut this June. Romious (9-3 MMA, 0-1 UFC) tries to return to the Win column after losing his UFC debut. However, he confiscates 20% of his wallet after coming north of the bantamweight limit more than 3 pounds.

Changho Lee vs. ESPN 65 Expert Pick, Cortical Lomis UFC on Prediction

Despite having two bantamweight matchups that have been relegated to qualify, the UFC matchmaker has decided to feature Cortavious Romous and Chang Ho Lee due to its proximity to internal products such as the Dana White contender series and the Road to UFC.

Both men are in their 30s, but their game has a raw life of developing fighter jets in their early 20s.

Romias certainly managed to get a jump in the first explosion of his takedown shot, but the American tendency to fish for submission from his back looks like a feature of his nasty fighting IQ.

Lee may not write much at home, but the Koreans are good at scoring on strike, whether he is in a positive or negative position. On the road to UFC products there is a nasty knee from the double-coloured connection where Romias can find himself from the failed takedown.

I’m on the semi-comfort side with Lee to win a fierce battle decision on the scorecard.
