Duffee is listed as the heavy favorite in UFC odds at -325 while Russow has a lot to prove at +250, but he pays will if he’s able to pull off the upset.
Todd Duffee is undefeated so far in his career and is on track to become a contender for the title. He will not have an easy route, as he will have to go through Mike Russow, a solid UFC fighter.
Russow will definitely hold the advantage in terms of experience as the two square off against each other. Russow also has an ability to fight on the ground, which is different in comparison to many of the fighters that Duffee has seen so far.
All of these things taken into account, Duffee is one of the top prospects in the sport for a reason. He has shown an amazing ability to pound his opponents early and often. He has disposed of all of his opponents early on. If Russow makes it to the 2nd round, he will be the first fighter to do so against the powerful Duffee.
Russow will clearly be the underdog in this match, but he has the opportunity to shock many in this fight. Duffee is untested as he has not faced an opponent that could even touch him to do any damage. If Russow can secure some takedowns he will have the opportunity to show the world if Duffee has any kind of ground game. It is difficult to know what type of ground game Duffee is capable of at this point, as he has never really needed to use it yet.
