Nelson is a decent sized Lightweight, and a pretty huge Featherweight.

A double jab, right hand would do wonders for Kyle Nelson.

Bilder is dropping his hands backing up.

Damn should have stayed with my first pick.

Nelson 20-18. Got a bet on him at +280 in round 2, let's see how this go. Interesting fight.

Hopefully it's 19-19 but it could be 20-18 either way. Good fight.

Could be 2-0 Nelson with him rocking Bilder towards the end of round 1.

19-19.
Bilder has the advantage when it comes to speed and strikes volume. But Nelson has the power advantage and managed to even the fight in the second round.

Don't forget this is Canada and the crowd goes nuts whenever Nelson hits. Also Bilder reacts way worse to dmg than Nelson.

Nelson should just hold him there, ref has shown 0 urgency to get the action flowing and a takedown is very risky, could end up on bottom.
