Make sure to circle Manuel Torres vs. Ignacio Bahamondes on the UFC 306 card, as many believe it could be Fight of the Night. It’s not only the fans and pundits who have been voicing the potential war between the two. “El Loco” Torres is also a believer.
Torres (15-2 MMA, 3-0 UFC) and Bahamondes (15-5 MMA, 4-2 UFC) are set to lock horns this Saturday on the preliminary card of Noche UFC at Sphere in Las Vegas. It’s a bout between two very distinct, but very exciting strikers. The Mexican lightweight sees his fight with Bahamondes as a potential Fight of the Night bout, and is confident the two will throw down big time in the octagon.
“I do believe it can be Fight of the Night,” Torres told MMA Junkie in Spanish. “It can be something very special. Sparks will fly, there’s no way around it because our styles clash, and like you said, he’s a very good striker as well.
