How To Bet Kattar vs Sterling
Sterling vs a boxer? Oh, no, right. Aljo is coming off a disappointing KO loss to Sean O'Malley, but that's more a product of O'Malley's quickness and deception than anything else.
Kattar is a clinical boxer. He keeps a high guard, firing kicks and combos in a straight line. It'll be a challenge for Sterling to outslug Kattar.
Instead, this bout will be decided by Sterling's entries into conflict. If he can clinch or pin Kattar against the fence, that's great news. Kattar's 91% takedown defense will be hard to crack, but if Sterling works at it, he'll have his way on the ground.
Kattar vs Sterling Pick
I think the Kattar vs Sterling odds are fair, but I'd peg it closer to a pick'em line. Either way, I'm picking the "Funkmaster," and for more value, I like Aljo to win by decision.
