Main highlight of UFC 198, event to be held on May 14, in Curitiba (PR), Fabricio Werdum gave his prediction for the second most important fight of the night. For the Ultimate heavyweight champion, the only Brazilian duel of the night will feature a resounding victory from Ronaldo Jacare about Vitor belfort.

In an interview with the “SporTV” channel, Werdum believes that Jacaré is capable of winning both by knockout and submission. “Jacaré is physically very strong. Vitor is very fast, but Jacaré's power in this fight is very important. Of course he will want to take it to the ground, as he is clearly much stronger than Belfort. I believe in submission, or, suddenly, they will stop the fight because Jacaré will hit Vitor so much”, said the gaucho.

Shortly after the duel between Jacaré and Belfort, Werdum will make his first UFC title defense. He faces Stipe Miocic in the main attraction of the fight show at Arena da Baixada.
