Insider info
Seung Woo Choi favored — picked against Michael Trizano lean UFC 281 · November 8, 2022
He calls this one of his less confident picks and says he's only comfortable with a very small wager on the underdog.
Trizano rounds out a solid boxing-and-wrestling combination on both sides of the ball, and what stands out most is his consistency — he sticks with whatever is working rather than abandoning a successful game plan mid-fight, and he raises his pace and urgency specifically when he senses he's behind on the cards. Facing a much more one-dimensional opponent, his ability to blend striking and wrestling situationally, opening one up when the other stalls, gives him a workable route to a decision or better.
