Sean O’Malley vs Kris Moutinho

Suga Sean O'Malley and Kris Moutinho are kicking off the main card of UFC 264 Poirier vs Mcgregor 3. This fight originally supposed to be Sean O'Malley vs Louis Smolka but Smolka had to pull out due to a staph infection. This would've been a test for O'Malley instead it's a tune-up fight to continue building up O'Malley's stardom.

For starters the UFC wants O'Malley to win as he is their future superstar, but the leg of O'Malley's leg concerns me as it seems prone to injury. Kris Moutinho will attack the base of O'Malley which does concern me for O'Malley's sake. It goes without saying that O'Malley is the superior fighter and should dominate Kris Moutinho with the stand-up. I can't take O'Malley at -1200 due to the injury concern but at the same time, this fight isn't going the distance. O'Malley is listed at -290 for KO/TKO, +1200 for submission, and -340 for either but their are better odds in the early finish within the first and second round.
