Chris Camozzi vs Esteban "Mohawk" Rodriguez- Interim Cruiserweight Championship Bout
Chris Camozzi lost the cruiserweight title in his previous encounter, and now he’s out for redemption. He meets Esteban “Mohawk” Rodriguez in the interim title fight, and starts as the favorite, holding a 4-2-0 career record. Rodriguez offers value in this matchup with +135 odds, despite an 83.3% win rate in his BKFC career. Rodriguez is on a three-fight win streak, but this is arguably his biggest test to date. While Camozzi is the punters’ preference, Rodriguez has the momentum on his side. He’s also never won a fight that has gone beyond the second round.
Ramiro Figueroa vs Elvin "El Bandito" Brito - Lightweight Co-Main Event
Two fighters at opposite ends of their career meet in Colorado to scale the welterweight rankings. The more youthful Ramiro Figueroa enters the Squared Circle as the favorite, carrying a two-fight win streak. His last defeat came against James Brown 12 months ago. Elvin Brito switches sea level for altitude this Friday, adding to an already insurmountable task. The Puerto Rican has only triumphed in 53.8% of his BKFC battles. More recently, Brito has come out on top in only two of his last five bouts.
Josh "Cuddly Bear" Copeland vs Corey "Whatchu Talkin' About Willis - Heavyweight Featured Fight
The heavyweight frames of Josh Coperland and Corey Willis are desperate for a victory. Both gentleman tasted defeat last time out, but their BKFC campaigns are still in their infancy. Copeland enters Denver with a 50% win record in four appearances, while Copeland has won two out of three. “Cuddly Bear” holds the reach advantage by three inches over Willis, but the latter has won his two career fights before the second round bell has rung.
Expert Pick
Esteban “Mohawk” Rodriguez wins the fight for our expert pick nomination for BKFC 88. He’s favorably priced at +135 and has only lost once in his six trips inside the Squared Circle. Staking a $20.00 wager on Rodriguez to defeat Camozzi might pay out $47.00.
