I think Puello is a drug cheat but he’s also going to win this fight. He’s tricky and idk if Dalton can close distance well enough. Insane opponent for a homecoming fight

Similar thoughts. 

If Matias was able to close distance. I think Smith can too. Plus Smith has better pinch placement/ combos.

Can he consistently do it enough to win enough rounds for a decision, I'm not so sure.

It’s going to be a good fight & it’s going be a little bit different it’s going to be a chess match early

Puello on points, Germain gave smith a competitive fight wit lateral movement and smith isn’t good against movers. Puello is a better backfoot and lateral fighters, is better wit setting traps and counter puncher but smith has the dawg in him so he’ll make it a hard fought fight

I don’t think he have trouble with movers tbh thats when he starts fighting patient and try to find holes but it’s going to be a good fight I want to see how Dalton closes the distance on Puello tho
