MIAMI – Adrian Yanez sees a finish of Rob Font at UFC 287 taking his career to the next level.
Unbeaten in the octagon, Yanez (16-3 MMA, 5-0 UFC) faces a big step up in competition when he takes on Font (19-6 MMA, 9-5 UFC) on Saturday’s featured main card bout at Kaseya Arena. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and early prelims on ESPN+.
Font has lost his past two bouts, but Yanez knows not to underestimate him. He loves the forward-pressure style his opponent brings to the octagon, and will look to become the first to take Font out by strikes as he goes in with the “mindset of Marvin Hagler.”
