Spann should have the significant advantage when it goes to the mat and undoubtedly has better submission skills. Drilling down to suggest that Spann punts Guskov with a head kick or snatches a guillotine choke is a step too far, as the catch-all of a stoppage win for “Superman” is good enough. Both stoppage losses for the Uzbekistan native have come in the opening frame, which works for Spann as he tends to get the job done in that period.
Diniz has yet to go to the second round, although he is just six bouts into his pro tenure. On the other hand, the Floridian has escaped Round 1 on three occasions after 17 professional outings, and all four of his losses have come by first-round knockout.
