Cons

Prediction: Seul isn’t UFC level but he wipes the floor with Adajar. It was hard to find anything positive watching Adajar. He’s just way too sloppy and his gas tanks is awful. Seul is a good long counter-puncher and he will snipe Adajar eventually. This is a squash match and it probably won’t last long.
