Preview

 

In the Bantamweight division, Montel Jackson and J.P. Buys face-off in what could be a quick fight. Jackson enters this contest off a stoppage victory over Jesse Strader. The victory was Jackson’s fourth in his last five fights, as well as his first stoppage victory in nearly three years. Meanwhile, Buys is stepping up on short notice and up a weight class. The Flyweight clearly sees an opportunity to erase his UFC debut defeat, against a touted prospect in Jackson. Before the defeat, Buys had rattled off five consecutive wins.

Prediction

As for a prediction, obviously I’m siding with Jackson. The sheer size advantage should aid Jackson in several ways, as he could wrestle Buys in an attempt to gain top control or keep the fight upright. If Jackson chooses the latter, he holds a significant reach and power advantage. In the end, I foresee Jackson one way or another finishing Buys via strikes in the opening round.
