Next Saturday (15), on UFC's first visit to Mexico, Fabricio Werdum e Mark Hunt will compete for the interim heavyweight belt of the largest MMA organization on the planet. And, depending on the opinion of the current category champion, Cain Velazquez, the belt will be in the hands of the Brazilian fighter.
Velasquez, who would defend the title until he injured his knee and changed the UFC's plans, believes that Werdum has more weapons to come away with victory, since the New Zealander's game, in his opinion, comes down to just great knockout power.
Asked on “The MMA Hour” podcast about his prediction for the fight, Velasquez made a direct analysis: “Werdum. I think that Mark Hunt It has that knockout power and that's basically it. I think Werdum, with his size, his wrestling and his ground game, has the advantage. Standing up, with the power that Hunt has, I think he has a good chance of winning there. That’s basically it”, said the champion.
