Prediction: Both these guys won their non-tournament bouts last round so they are fighting each other now. Tumendemberel answered a lot of questions as before he was just knocking fools out with no issue. He fought to a tough decision where he showed big holes in his striking technique and takedown defense.
Danesoe has a great flying knee knockout over a talented Sim Kai Xiong who I was confident would win. Tumendemberel was underwhelming and Danesoe exceeded expectations.
As much as I was impressed with Danesoe last time I think this is a bad match-up for him. I still have strong concerns with his takedown defense and cardio and Tumendemberel can exploit that. Tumendemberel showed he can take a shot so I’m confident if anyone is finishing early it’s him. If not I’m way more confident in his ability to dig deep and pull out a win. The winner of this should get signed to the UFC.
