Odds From Betonline.ag
This is a fight that is heavily slanted towards O’Malley. The one thing that Wineland could do is try to get Sean on the ground, but even then that has not worked for the opponents in the past. Look for Sean O’Malley to come into the fight here and land more significant blows to end the fight early as Wineland is not that good at getting strikes quickly and even then they are not that accurate. What else help is the fact that O’Malley is the bigger opponent with longer reach.
