Video: Which undercard fighter can steal the show at UFC 287 in Miami?

The UFC return to Miami after more than 20 years on Saturday for UFC 287, and although the top two fights of Alex Pereira vs. Israel Adesanya and Gilbert Burns vs. Jorge Masvidal are getting the lion’s share of the attention, the card has more to offer, too.

A number of important fights are scheduled on the remainder of he 13-bout lineup, which takes place at Kaseya Center with a main card that airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+.

From the bantamweight matchup of Rob Font vs. Adrian Yanez to welterweights Kevin Holland vs. Santiago Ponzinibbio and middleweights Chris Curtis vs. Kelvin Gastelum, there’s plenty of meat on the bone for fans at UFC 287.

But which fighter has the most potential to steal the spotlight and headlines coming out of the event?

Our “Spinning Back Clique” panel of Mike Bohn, Brian “Goze” Garcia and Dan Tom broke it down with host Farah Hannoun. Check out their discussion in the video above, and don’t miss this week’s full episode below.

“Spinning Back Clique” is released each Monday LIVE on MMA Junkie’s YouTube channel.
