This is a strong stylistic spot for Dan Ige, and the KO prop holds clear value based on where both fighters are at in their careers. Ige enters with a significant durability edge and proven power at 145. While Pitbull has historically been one of the best fighters outside the UFC, his physical decline has become increasingly evident — he's been visibly hurt in four straight bouts and no longer absorbs damage the way he once did.

Ige may not always be the most consistent round-winner, but his hands remain a serious weapon, especially against aging opponents with defensive vulnerabilities. If Pitbull can’t consistently wrestle — and there’s reason to doubt he will pursue or succeed with that approach here — then Ige's pressure and clean boxing combinations should create openings. He carries power late and has shown he can close the show when he lands clean.

The moneyline value on Ige has gone, but Ige by KO is the best way to back him now, particularly given the fragility Pitbull has shown recently. If Ige wins, it’s most likely inside the distance via his hands.
