UFC 211 will host a variety of incredible fights, but it is easy to see why Stipe Miocic versus the fourth-ranked Junior Dos Santos will be a war for the ages. Both fighters are incredibly accurate and have great defensive styles, so it should be a marathon. Dos Santos has a slight reach advantage but Miocic has more knockout power. Dos Santos is also the more skilled submission artist so that could play a role as the fight wears on. The champion Miocic will come in two pounds heavier and should look to push the pace early.
The card also features what should be a brutal fight between Women’s Strawweight Champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk and the number three ranked Jessica Andrade. Some people speculate that this fight may even better than the main event as both fighters are incredibly talented and hit extremely hard. The one thing Andrade does have over the champ is the ability to finish fights early. Jedrzejczyk is 13-0 and has dominated her opponents in just about every fight she has been in. She is incredibly quick and has drawn some comparisons to another famous boxer, Floyd “Money” Mayweather. Jessica Andrade is an incredibly powerful fighter who can easily dominate her opponent. She is also an accomplished submission artist, so if she can keep the fight in close quarters, Jedrzejczyk could be in trouble.
The rest of the card is just as incredible, as there are a ton of competitive, big-name contenders are looking to make an impact on the UFC world. The prelims are also filled with great matchups that should keep fans entertained until the main card.
