Prediction
Market snapshot on Aug. 24: Sy roughly -145 to -175, Bukauskas roughly +125 to +153. Sy gets the pick because of his major reach advantage, physical strength and ability to mix wrestling into the matchup. Bukauskas is the more proven UFC striker and has solid takedown defense, so Sy may need to win a controlled decision rather than dominate.
