“Milosevic is making her UFC debut here, and she does look like the better overall fighter,” Marley reported. “Cowan is a decent athlete, but I don’t see any stylistic edge for her. Milosevic should have the striking and grappling edges, and I think she could win on the cards or get a finish.” See who else to back here.
