UFC Fight Night: Cain Velasquez v. Francis Ngannou

Who will WIN this FIGHT?

Cain Velasquez (USA)

Francis Ngannou (CMR)

 

Current odds:

Cain Velasquez: (-188)

Francis Ngannou: (+150)

 

If Velasquez can get Ngannou down with ease, then he’s pretty much got this in the bag. But, even Miocic didn’t have that easy a time getting Ngannou down early, and took some big shots to get there.

Add in Cain’s long layoff and that the last time he hit a real takedown in the cage was against Fabricio Werdum (more than 3 years ago!), and the fact that Ngannou never looks like a more comfortable striker than when opponents are trying to close him down and wrestle him.
