Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Bantamweight strikers Thomas Almeida and Albert Morales will duel this Saturday (Nov. 19, 2016) at UFC Fight Night 100 inside Ibirapuera Auditorium in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
After winning his first 21 professional mixed martial arts (MMA) fights, Almeida tasted defeat in the form of a first round knockout his last time out courtesy of Cody Garbrandt. At just 25 years old, there’s still plenty of time for the Brazilian to correct past errors and improve, but the first bout back from a loss like that will be telling. On the other hand, Morales just recently debuted in UFC, impressing in a controversial draw opposite Alejandro Perez after taking the bout on short-notice.
