Preview
A pair of Bantamweights open the show, as UFC debutant Mana Martinez takes on UFC veteran Guido Cannetti. Martinez enters this contest on a two-fight win streak, with both wins coming via stoppage in the opening round. Before the win streak, Martinez had competed on Dana White’s Contender Series, but lost. Meanwhile, Cannettii has had a rough go of it of late. The Argentinian has dropped two straight fights and three of his last four. Even worse, Cannetti has been stopped in all three of those fights.
Prediction
At 41 years old, I think Guido Cannetti’s time in the sun has come and gone. Cannetti has been in the UFC since 2014, yet has only fought six times. Even worse, he’s lost four of those six, all via stoppage. The Argentinian simply lacks durability, and it’s not like father time improves something like that. From the tape I’ve seen on Mana Martinez, he looks the part. Boasting a well rounded skill set and an aptitude for finishing fights, Martinez should have no issues in his UFC debut against Cannetti.
As for a prediction, obviously I have Martinez winning. Outside of Cannetti landing something wild, I see this being a short night for him. With no durability and Martinez being a bonafide finisher, it’s only a matter of time before this fight is over. Given Martinez has won all eight fights via strikes, I’m going to go say a ninth is on it’s way.
