Splits: 66% of handle, 56% of bets on Roberts

Trinaldo is the narrow favorite in this fight, but the bets and money are on Roberts. Trinaldo hasn’t ever been knocked out. Roberts has eight knockout victories to his credit and five wins by submission. He came back from nearly two years away from the octagon and won by a split decision against Ramazan Emeev. Roberts will build on that performance and take down Trinaldo on Saturday.
