UFC Fight Night 205 Tournament Match
The fight will take place on April 24 in Las Vegas (Nevada, USA) at the UFC Apex mini-arena and will become part of the main card of the UFC Fight Night 205 tournament. The estimated start of the fight is 05:30 Kyiv time. The fight will be broadcast live on Setanta Sports.
Veteran lightweight Clay Guida (37-21) will welcome the much less experienced Claudio Puelles (11-2) into the cage.
The 40-year-old Guida managed a second-round choke victory over Leonard Santos in December, having lost four of his last six fights so far, which speaks to the clear decline of his career.
The Ultimate Fighter Latino Season 3 finalist, Puelles, has had a solid run in the UFC, winning his last four fights. He last fought in December on the same card with Guida, winning with a lever knee in the 3rd round against Chris Grützemacher.
Here we are dealing with fighters whose forte is grappling. On the ground, Guida can still call out and force a surrender, but a hungrier and fresher Puelles should generally be a success.
Guida has never been particularly famous for his work in the stance, and at the age of 40, competing with a 25-year-old opponent with tolerable kickboxing skills, who is also 13 cm taller than you, is another idea. We predict that the Peruvian should win this fight very comfortably, for sure, Puelles will try not to risk and kill the veteran in the standing position. Puelles is far from being a puncher, so he is unlikely to be able to knock out the staunch Guida.
Puelles win on points
