Definitely, and I’m sick of people counting him out only to get embarrassed when he gets the win.

He is likely to eat a couple of bombs during the fight but he has a granite chin. He’ll keep Ilia at a distance and I can imagine him subbing him or wrestlefucking him to a decision.

Though If he beats Paddy, I’m willing to admit that Ilia really is that good. I haven’t liked him since he knocked out Ryan Hall.
