UFC Fight Night 219: Andrade vs. Blanchfield is scheduled to take place in Las Vegas on February 19 at the popular UFC Apex Arena. In the preliminary card event, Colombian Juancamilo Ronderos will fight American prospect Clayton Carpenter in the flyweight division. The Colombian made an unsuccessful league debut in May 2021 and his future opponent is only planning to do so. The fight is planned for 23:00 UK time.
Watching Clayton’s fights you can tell that he often forgets to move on his feet and also takes most of his punches to the head. He’s got quite a swinging side and all his attacks follow unpredictable trajectories.
Nevertheless, defence is one of the most important bindings in MMA, it is even more important to think about it when you fight in the best organization in the world. Perhaps the public is writing Ronderos off too early, the odds of winning here are probably much closer than bookmakers are trying to convince us.
The 27-year-old Colombian fighter Juancamilo Ronderos has a record of four wins and one defeat. He made his Dana White promotion debut last year, where he suffered a submission loss to Czech David ‘’The Undertaker’’ Dvorak by rear naked choke in the first round. Previously he had a very successful WXC promotion. It should be noted that he made his UFC debut on short notice.
The fighter is not bad at grappling and can also box well. However, his mediocre level of opposition and lack of experience may not allow him to climb high in the UFC rankings.
The 26-year-old undefeated American fighter Clayton Carpenter records (6-0-0). He has a very strong showing in LFAs, as well as his success at the Contender Series of 2022, where he won Mexican Edgar ‘’Pitbull Chairez’’ by unanimous decision. He has won by technical knockout, double knockouts, submissions and decisions as well.
‘’Concrete’’ is a well-balanced fighter, who is very good at standup and grappling. However Clayton’s level of opposition was not particularly serious, so it’s hard to assess this fighter’s skills.
