Case for Todorović
Todorović fights at home in Belgrade and finishes 92% of his wins, most recently choking out Jose Medina in round one. He is the busier striker at 4.73 strikes a minute, which matters against a man whose striking defence sits at 33%.
Case for Valentin
Valentin is the more dangerous submission threat by a wide margin — a 1.78 submission average against Todorović's 0.35 — and he choked out Julien Leblanc inside one round in April. He does not need long stretches of offence; one scramble is enough.
