The UFC was busy announcing new struggles. Below are some of the new forthcoming midnight set for spring UFC cards, and my first thoughts on these.
Michel Prazeres vs. Ismail Naurdiev, UFC Fight Night 145
Because of an injury to Ramazan Emeev, Ismail Naurdiev has obtained a short-notice struggle against Michel Prazeres at UFC Fight Night 145, occurring February 23 at The O2 Arena in Prague, Czech Republic. MMABrasil broke the news. Prazeres (26-2) is 10-2 at the UFC entire and will be riding an eight-fight win series right now. He had difficulty making the lightweight limit of 155lbs and because moving up to welterweight has arguably looked even better with back-to-back wins over Zak Cummings and Bartosz Fabinski. Naurdiev (17-2) is making his UFC debut on the potency of back-to-back knockout wins. He’s experience fighting in ACB, along with the vast majority of his wins have come by stoppage. But he’s also fought a very low amount of competition and Prazeres is a major step up. I expect Prazeres for a good favorite here, and he deserves it after the recent series he has went on within the Octagon.
Enrique Barzola vs. Kevin Aguilar, UFC on ESPN two Featherweights Enrique Barzola and Kevin Aguilar are set to match at UFC on ESPN 2, occurring March 30 at Wells Fargo Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The information was broken by mMAWeekly. Barzola (15-3-1) is 5-1 at the UFC and is currently riding a four-fight win series together with all of his wins coming by decision. Barzola’s record is remarkable, but his lack of finishing instincts could hurt him as he progresses up the featherweight ranks. Aguilar (16-1) is coming from a successful UFC debut when he won a unanimous decision over Rick Glenn, and overall he is riding an eight-fight win series. His only career loss came against Leonard Garcia back in 2013, but he’s been perfect in his MMA career. This is a pretty solid matchup between two guys on win stripes but according to his capacity to really complete a struggle I’d have to favor Aguilar to get his hands raised.
Tom Breese vs. Ian Heinisch, UFC Fight Night 147
Due to an injury to Cezar Ferreira, Ian Heinisch is stepping up as an injury replacement to take on Tom Breese at UFC Fight Night 147, taking place March 16 at The O2 Arena in London, England. Breese (11-1) is 4-1 in the UFC and is coming from a TKO win over Dan Kelly in his middleweight debut. Heinisch (12-1) is now riding a four-fight win series and is coming off of a successful UFC introduction when he conquered the aforementioned Ferreira by choice. His only career defeat came from Markus Perez, who just filed Anthony Hernandez in UFC Fight Night 144. This looks like a really good matchup between two middleweights with future name aspirations. Both Breese and Heinisch are very well-rounded fighters and this is going to be a close battle. I’d have to prefer Breese just based on the fact that the struggle is in England, but I anticipate Heinisch to be very aggressive in this matchup and he could be well worth considering as a dog.
