Jack Della Maddalena vs. Danny Roberts Tale of the Tape

Roberts will be coming into this one with more experience but also considerably more defeats. While he has a slightly longer reach and is a bit taller, neither size difference is large enough to really ensure an advantage for him in striking exchanges.

Despite working on his ground game, Roberts is in hot water here against a younger, more athletic, more complete striker in Della Maddalena. Unless Roberts manages to take this to the ground where his foe is less experienced than he is, this will likely be a fast-handed war on the feet.

Jack Della Maddalena vs. Danny Roberts Betting and Prediction

At a glance, this fight should be less daunting for Roberts given he's not facing a grappler. Grappling and wrestling, despite some recent improvements, have frequently proven to be Roberts' biggest weaknesses in the octagon.

However, Della Maddalena is fast-proving to be an elite-level boxer, so Roberts won't have much of an advantage on the feet or on the mat with this one. Even if Roberts gets in close enough to implement his budding grappling skills, it'll ne near impossible for him to come out of such an exchange unscathed.

Given Della Maddalena's speed and viciousness on the feet, this could very well be a short, violent affair.

Prediction: Jack Della Maddalena via TKO/KO
