Another UFC Fight Night will take place on December 18th at UFC Apex. Take a look at the middleweight bout where Julian Marquez and Deron Winn will face off. Will Daniel’s friend Cormier be able to get his career back on track? The fight is planned for 23:00 UK time.
For a middleweight division, Deron is very small in size, which leaves him no chance against most colorful opponents. Marquez has good wrestling, so he’s capable of standing up to future opponent’s touchdowns. And in the standup will outbox him due to his long arm span and appropriate power in his punches.
The American fighter goes by the nickname “Cuban Missile Crisis”. He is 32 years old at this stage and has had 12 fights in pro-MMA, in which he has come out victorious nine times. The fighter has good striking and developed ability on the ground. He is a basic fighter, who subsequently gained a purple belt in jiu-jitsu and developed his striking ability.
In 2022, his winning win streak was interrupted by “RoboCop” Gregory Rodriguez, who nearly blew Julian’s head off with his punch. Remarkably, Marquez has won all his victories early (6 KOs, 3 submissions).
The career of the 33-year-old American Deron Winn has been in a very sad state lately. The Missouri native has suffered three defeats in his last four fights. In 2022 he came back after a long layoff, where he faced Phil “No Hype” Hawes in the Octagon (lost by technical knockout). In total, he has seven wins and three losses on his record.
From an early stage, Deron was seriously into freestyle wrestling. He has plenty of regalia in this discipline, including being a two-time winner of the NJCAA National Championships.
