Representing the Bantamweight class will be Miguel Torres and Antonio Banuelos. A decade into their pro career, these two will now be fighting on the UFC stage for the first time - PRESSURE.
Miguel Torres, former WEC Bantamweight champion, has an incredible record of 38 wins and only 3 loses. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu specialist and may thai striking background. Torres has weak takedown defence but if taken down, he's very comfortable with his BJJ to go for a submission. He's won 21 by submission. Torres has got tremendous reach and height advantage here, he may just want to standup and box it out with Banuelos.
Anotonio Banuelos has a concrete wrestling and is more of a brawler. Unleashing a rage of strikes that seems impulsive rather than planned. He's size disadvantage may be the tipping point for this matchup. If he does go for the takedown, will he be able to control the experience and skill of Torres' BJJ? Standing up with Torres, will he be able to land shots or perform well in a clinch?
I'm taking TORRES VIA DEC
