ZHANG MINGYANG VS BRENDSON RIBEIRO PREDICTION

This light heavyweight bout features the current Chinese number one ranked MMA fighter in the division, Zhang Mingyang. The ‘Mountain Tiger’, fighting out of Qingdao, has 16 victories with six defeats in his career thus far. Brendson Ribeiro is currently on a three-fight winning streak with 15 wins and five losses in his time as a professional MMA fighter. The heavy favourite for this encounter in Anaheim is the Chinese 25-year-old. Mingyang does have a disadvantage in terms of reach in comparison to Ribeiro but as a fighter he is more effective in landing ‘significant strikes’ and lands with more frequency per minute, too. Backing Zhang Mingyang is the way to go for this one.

Prediction: ZHANG MINGYANG TO WIN
