Fireworks in Copenhagen!
After a disappointing no contest in the main event of UFC on ESPN+17 last week, the UFC, the fighters, and most importantly the fans are hoping for a very different result this weekend. At UFC on ESPN+18 up and coming Middleweight contenders Jack Hermansson and Jared Cannonier are hoping to punch their ticket for a potential title shot.
Each man has their strengths and weaknesses and are looking to prove they’re the best in the world. The multifaceted Jack Hermansson will have to dig deep into his toolbox to out duel the powerful Jared Cannonier who’s looking to prove that his move to Middleweight will eventually lead him to UFC gold!
Here Comes a New Challenger!
As far as reasons to watch UFC on ESPN+18 goes, waiting to see who could be the potential next title challenger is high on the list. With Robert Whittaker and Israel Adesanya set to lock horns in one of the most anticipated fights in UFC history next week, Jack Hermansson and Jared Cannonier have a lot to prove in order to punch their ticket for the next title shot.
Of course that means that each man is looking to prove a point and that certainly means some guaranteed fire works when the cage door closes.
Jack of All Trades versus Raw Power
Jack Hermansson has proven himself to be a well-rounded fighter with solid striking and brutal ground game that has carried him to this marquee headlining position. He’ll need to use all those tools and more if he hopes to fend off Jared Cannonier who has destroyed his last two opponents, one of them the legendary Anderson Silva, since making his move to Middleweight.
With both men having great gas tanks, solid and effective striking, and the willingness to engage in a fire fight, we could see a tremendously entertaining fight.
