KHALID TAHA VS CRISTIAN QUINONEZ LOWDOWN
Having not won a fight in over three years, it’s now or never for Khalid Taha (13-4-1). Fighting out of Dortmund, Germany, Taha is coming off of a decision defeat to Sergey Morozov back in July of 2021. Looking to get back in the win column this weekend, Taha will have to put in a flawless performance.
Currently riding a four-fight winning streak, Cristian Quinonez (16-3) will be making his promotional debut this weekend. Quinonez earned himself a chance to compete in the UFC after defeating Long Xiao in the Dana White’s Contender Series back in 2021. Quinonez will be itching to impress the UFC fans this weekend with a sensational performance against Taha.
KHALID TAHA VS CRISTIAN QUINONEZ PREDICTION
Heading into this weekend’s bantamweight bout, Quinonez will have an advantage in both the height and reach department.
Looking at Taha’s record, it’s fair to say that he hasn’t enjoyed the best of luck during his tenure so far. He has faced some tough competition throughout his UFC career. Quinonez will prove to be another tough test for Taha. Quinonez’s footwork and output are the keys to victory this weekend. Taha is reliant on looking for the big blow, which ultimately ends up costing him. From the off, we suspect that Quinonez will tear up Taha’s leg and look to land some shots from range using his reach advantage to secure the victory.
