UFC Dana White’s Contender Series Odds, Picks & Predictions: Jimmy Lawson vs. Karl Williams
In this battle, two heavyweights will clash as Jimmy Lawson and Karl Williams both have just one defeat under their belts. Lawson, a former Penn State All-American wrestler, lost his professional debut in early 2019 and enters this matchup after four straight victories inside the octagon.
Williams, who is 32 years old, enters this contest having won six of his previous seven professional fights, including three by way of knockout. This is likely his last chance to compete in the UFC, an opportunity he won’t want to squander.
It is worth noting that Williams only recently relocated to the United States from the US Virgin Islands and has only lately begun working with full-time professionals as he prepares for this fight.
While there is always risk in taking a side on a heavyweight bout due to the punching power, I think we see the more experienced and tested Lawson get this win well within the distance.
Pick: Jimmy Lawson (-215 via DraftKings)
