Charlie Radtke: Chuck Buffalo out to prove a point
Charlie “Chuck Buffalo” Radtke (10-5) comes into this fight looking to bounce back after his loss to Mike Malott earlier this year and remind everyone why he belongs in the UFC welterweight division. Fighting proudly under the American flag , Radtke is the more complete mixed martial artist here. He has solid grappling and good Brazilian jiu-jitsu, but generally prefers to stand and trade leather.
He’s got sharp hands, good timing, and that patented left hook that carries serious power — a shot that has ended more than a few of his wins inside the distance. He’s also proven to be durable and composed under pressure, showing the ability to mix things up and find different paths to victory when needed.
Daniel Frunza: Romanian aiming to push the pace
Daniel Frunza (9-3) earned his way into the UFC with an impressive knockout win on the Dana White’s Contender Series. He’s an aggressive striker who likes to push the pace early and look for the finish. Frunza carries big power in both hands and has shown that he can end a fight in an instant, but his defensive game and consistency over three rounds have been questioned at times.
He does, however, seem to have the better gas tank between the two, and that could favor him the longer this fight goes on, especially if it turns into a high-paced striking affair.
Charlie Radtke vs Daniel Frunza prediction
This is a good stylistic matchup between two men who like to strike, but Radtke is clearly the more well-rounded fighter. He has solid grappling and jiu-jitsu to fall back on if needed, but more importantly, he’s sharper technically and has that signature left hook that can change a fight in a split second.
Frunza may have the better gas tank, but Radtke’s experience and overall skill set should carry him through here. Expect Radtke to find his timing, control the pace, and get the job done.
Prediction: Charles Radtke to win
