Daniil Donchenko · 66%

Clear FightLedger lean, but with a realistic counter-path for the opponent.

Prediction

Market snapshot on Aug. 24: Donchenko roughly -200 to -230, Soriano roughly +174 to +192. Donchenko gets the pick because the market is strongly favoring his cleaner overall form and he should be able to force Soriano to work through longer exchanges rather than rely on single power moments. Soriano's left hand remains a major equalizer, so the pick is solid but not high-confidence.
