Prediction: Jesse Rodriguez by Stoppage
Result: Jesse Rodriguez by Stoppage
This was a fun fight but Bam was just on another level as expected. Cafu is a pretty good fighter and definitely isn’t a fraud world champion like Romero or Scull (even though I had him just barely losing to Tanaka🤷♂️), but he’s just not elite. He kept it semi-competitive with sneaky shots and he definitely had Bam’s attention throughout, but Bam just broke him down with his elite shot selection. What a fighter he is!
