Pedro Munhoz vs Rob Font preview
This ought to be a damn good scrap between two of the bantamweight division’s brightest future stars. Given the skill set and toughness of each man, I expect to see a competitive tilt regardless of the official outcome. Nevertheless, when the ref raises the hand of the winning fighter, I expect it to be the kid from Boston, Massachusetts. Indeed, while I expect a competitive affair, the work that Font has put in with striking Coach Mark DellaGrotte has been evident. It’s turned a plus athlete into an absolute sniper. Font will have a pronounced speed advantage, but it’s the reach discrepancy between the two that changes the entire dynamic. Specifically, Munoz and Font clock in with a 65 and 72 inch reach respectively.
Given his anatomical advantages and edge in speed and striking technique, Font is set up perfectly for a breakout performance. In fact, the only why I see Pedro pulling out the victory here is if Font makes a mistake and gets his head caught in the spring-loaded bear trap that is a Pedro Munoz guillotine choke.
Font is busts Pedro up from range and wins a clear cut UD in São Paulo.
