This should be a tremendous action fight that is unlikely to go the distance. It’s not a surprise that Njokuani is a massive favorite after he completely demolished Marc-Andre Barriault in 15 seconds.

Todorovic is there to be hit and he’s going to have to land something against Njokuani early to get his respect. Njokuani will go forward and look for the quick finish.
