I think only vera is worth betting here.

Why exactly do you think vera is worth betting? I'm just curious, I've been mulling over that line for the longest time.

Vera is a multi-dimensional fighter and the blueprint to beating tim has been laid out and vera has all the tools to do it...but is that enough for him to be a 2:1 favorite? Seriously, he's fighting a guy that has an IRON chin, has a HUGE reach advantage, and has way more octagon experiece.

Is it going to be that easy for vera to close the distance and impose his will on the clumsy giant that hits like a freight truck?
