Nicknamed Sexi Mexi, John Castañeda became known for being a Combate Americas champion and for his balance of wins both on his feet and on the canvas, with 8 wins by KO and 6 by submission. He was on the UFC’s radar after defeating Cheyden Leialoha with his varied and creative striking.
Born in Dallas, Texas, this bantamweight fighter is a jiu-jitsu specialist who has been competing professionally for the past decade. A criminal law graduate and juvenile social worker, Castañeda has three fights under the UFC franchise: he lost the first, to Nathaniel Wood, and won the next two, against Eddie Wineland and Miles Johns.
Daniel Santos
- Odds: +160
- Record: 10-2-0
- Age: 27
- Height: 1.70 m
- Weight: 61 kg
- Reach: 170 cm
Daniel Santos will try to obtain his first victory in his time with the organization. In his debut, he lost by unanimous decision to Julio Arce at UFC 273. The loss ended a two-year winning streak. Now, the Brazilian who made his career in the European circuit will look to prove why he deserves to stay in UFC.
Both Santos and Castañeda like to be aggressive and set the pace. However, in his debut, Santos absorbed 8.47 significant punches per minute, which is not a good sign given that Castañeda connects 4.38 significant punches per minute.
JefeBet Prediction
Neither is likely to lend themselves to grappling, as Santos has good takedown defense, while Castañeda doesn’t shoot often. It will be a stand-up fight, and Castañeda’s volume and amazing defense will be what makes the difference. Therefore, for JefeBet there is a slight advantage for the one from Dallas, who will win on the cards.
Prediction: John Castañeda wins by decision.
