Olympic gold medalist and six-time world champion Jordan Burroughs has an opponent for his Real American Freestyle (RAF) debut.
Last month, RAF announced that Burroughs signed with the promotion and would debut at the RAF 12 event on Aug. 22 at Rocket Arena in Cleveland, Ohio. Now, the promotion has confirmed that Burroughs will face off versus UFC Welterweight and Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt Sean Brady in a catchweight main event.
I’m not an odds maker, but I would expect something like -10,000 would be appropriate here? Barring a freak injury, it’s hard to give Brady any chance here. He’s a great grappler and has excellent MMA wrestling, but Burroughs is a different animal on the wrestling mat. There might be some concern that Burroughs is 37 years old, but he was wrestling at an elite level just two years ago.
Unless guillotines are suddenly allowed, Brady is in for a rough night.
