Acting as if Starocci cannot beat him is silly. He legitimately did it.
Now add a full season of acclimating to the weight and bear in mind that he had a failed drop to 74 KG (163lbs) four months prior to their last meeting and I think this might look more controlling than last time. Starocci did have 35 seconds of riding time to PK's 7 seconds that time, as well.
I think we might see Starocci get that riding time advantage.
Here is the match from November.
