I guess I can kind of understand the temptation to side with traditional logic here pointing out the most obvious advantages size and reach but this is not a traditional LHW, this man has already proven these advantages can be neutralized by his elite control game by beating BIGGER men than Stipe and he trains with monsters regularly. Not many fighters longer than Gus either...........

But I am glad the popular opinion is on Stipe, it has resulted in fantastic odds on DC. I will be putting money on the man who has only lost to one man and else wise is undefeated in any division.

And for the record, I bet on Stipe against Ngannou, also a night where the odds where skewed by public opinion. But in the gambling world it oft plays out as such, last fight Ngannou was getting all hype and thus the money and Stipe was an underdog (lmao) but now the hype is transferred to Stipe and DC is the underdog.

The only man on the planet DC should walk into the cage with as an underdog is Jon Jones and for that reason the value here is with DC.
