      Why Raina made this pick

      Brian Maxwell is the more complete striker here, and the model gives that skill set the deciding weight over 10 rounds.

      Justin Howell's clearest path is landing early power before the fight settles - a live route, which is why confidence sits at 77%.

      Reach, stance (Orthodox vs Orthodox) and pace history all point to a finish around round 2.
