ADRIAN YANEZ VS VICTOR RODRIGUEZ LOWDOWN
Fresh off his win on Dana White’s Contender Series, Adrian Yanez (11-3) heads to the APEX to make his UFC debut. He was originally scheduled to fight Aaron Phillips, but he had to pull out due to injury. Yanez is hoping to keep his streak going after knocking out Brady Huang to make it four on the bounce since losing a split decision to Miles Johns back in November 2018 who is also on the card.
He takes on another UFC debutant who is also on a four-fight win streak. Victor Rodriguez (7-2) had a couple setbacks in 2014 getting knocked out and submitted but now he is on a roll, a violent roll. He is coming off four straight knockouts including a second-round finish over Jared Mazurek for the Alaska Fighting Championship.
ADRIAN YANEZ VS VICTOR RODRIGUEZ PREDICTION
Rodriguez is a dangerous man, but he is unproven against decent competition. He has not fought anyone of note whereas Yanez has fought higher calibre opponents for the Legacy Fighting Alliance. He does not have a wealth of experience, but it is in a different league to Rodriguez. As long as Yanez can avoid the power of Rodriguez, he should get the job done with a potential finish.
Prediction: Yanez via KO/TKO
