Further prediction for the fight
Both fighters are PFL TOPs: Lance became the winner of the 2018 and 2019 seasons twice. Wade, in turn, reached the final last year but lost to our compatriot Movlid Khaibulaev.
Lance has a pragmatic style of fighting, using his punching technique as preparation for his takedowns and subsequent control on the ground. Chris prefers to put pressure on opponents constantly, and, in principle, it doesn’t matter to him in what plane the fight will go.
In my opinion, Wade is stylistically convenient for Palmer, as he does not have an excellent takedown defense and can be laid low. Despite the disastrous last season, I am betting on the former champion. I believe that he has every chance to take a million dollars this year because Movlid Khaibulaev will not participate due to injury.
