The fight here is one that shows that Abreu will have to fight hard to bring home a win. However, the big factor that is going to be making a difference in the fight is how well Abreu is going to be able to fight here and if he can get close to a submission. However, Hill lands more strikes per minute and ends up getting a better reach to keep Abreu away from the takedown that would give Abreu the chance to get a submission win. Look for Hill, though, to not only keep Abreu away, but land more blows as well.
