Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #1 –
In this confrontation, we’d like to give preference to the colorful Andre Petroski. With his power, aggression, and punching power he could easily finish Wellington. However, the American should not prolong the fight, because his cardio often lets him down. Still, we don’t think this fight will go into deep water. This fight could actually go to any fighter, but to me, Andre looks preferable, though not by much, in almost every aspect of the fight except cardio. Though Turman can’t boast in that aspect either and is already slumping in the third round.
The 31-year-old American fighter Andre Petroski is a versatile fighter. He is charged with every punch in the rack, he is physically strong, and very dangerous on the ground, as he has a wide arsenal of BJJ moves. The main disadvantage of Andre is his cardio, which often comes to an end in the middle of a three-round fight. The professional record of this guy consists of eight wins and one loss. In the best world organization, the New Jersey native was able to make three convincing wins. He has defeated such opponents as Nick Maksimov and Yaozong Hu by submission, and Micheal Gilmore by knockout. Remarkably, he made all his fights early. A well-balanced fighter who has heavy submissions in the standup and is excellent on the ground. He knocked out four of his opponents and scored the same number of kills.
Wellington Turman is a 26-year-old Brazilian with a record of 18 wins and five losses for this young fighter. He is currently on a two-fight winning streak. He defeated Sam Alvey by a split decision in the third round and then finished Misha Cirkunov with an armbar in the second round. He lost to Brazilian Bruno Silva and American Andrew Sanchez, both by knockout in the first round.
Wellington Turman is a jeter. Mediocre rack work, very weak defense against punches, and often stagnates. Turman’s strength is the parterre, where he poses the greatest threat through a wide range of painful and choking holds. However, the fighter doesn’t have the best grip. He is a black belt in BJJ and recently moved to a good gym, where he is already actively training judging by his last fight with Misha Cirkunov he became a really smart and competent fighter.
