FightIQ Verdict
"Caio Borralho's superior strength of schedule and defensive wrestling foundation make him the more reliable pick against a surging but less tested Yousri Belgaroui. While Belgaroui possesses dangerous kickboxing volume, Borralho has proven he can navigate five rounds against high-level opposition like Jared Cannonier and Nassourdine Imavov."
Belgaroui is a massive physical presence who relies on a 79" reach, but he has faced zero grapplers in the UFC caliber of Borralho who can mix levels to neutralize that length and force him to defend takedowns for 15 minutes.
