Daniel Santos: Chute Boxe product bringing violence and volume
Brazil’s Daniel Santos (12-2) has quietly put together a strong run since losing his UFC debut to Julio Arce in 2022. Since then, he’s rattled off three straight wins over John Castañeda, Johnny Muñoz Jr., and most recently Jeong Yeong Lee. Fighting out of the famed Chute Boxe gym — home to stars like Charles Oliveira — Santos embodies the gym’s blend of aggressive Muay Thai and elite BJJ.
Known for his all-action style, Santos is relentless on the feet and not afraid to mix in takedowns when needed. However, he can be hit clean, which adds jeopardy against sharp strikers.
Joo Sang Yoo: South Korea’s slick counter striker looks to remain unbeaten
South Korea’s Joo Sang Yoo (9-0) made a huge impact in his UFC debut, starching Jeka Saragih with a lightning-fast first-round knockout. The 31-year-old is a dynamic striker with excellent speed and skill — particularly in his counter-punching.
Though still untested at this level, his undefeated record and crisp technique mark him out as one of South Korea’s more intriguing prospects. Santos represents a real step up — but one that will give us answers about just how high Yoo’s ceiling might be.
Daniel Santos vs Joo Sang Yoo prediction
This is a sneaky banger on the prelims and one of the more evenly matched fights on paper. Santos brings UFC experience and well-rounded pressure, while Yoo enters as the undefeated prospect with speed and precision on his side.
While Santos could test Yoo’s takedown defence and cardio, the South Korean’s movement and timing may be enough to frustrate the Brazilian’s aggression. If Yoo can avoid a brawl and stay composed, expect him to land the cleaner shots and edge the contest — or find a finish with that signature counter.
Prediction: Joo Sang Yoo to win
