Daniel Zellhuber and Francisco Prado have agreed to fight at the upcoming UFC Mexico City card on Feb. 24, though contracts have not yet been signed.
Alright, folks, here’s the scoop. Daniel Zellhuber, our “Golden Boy”, is gearing up for a home-turf showdown. He’s set to duke it out with Francisco Prado at the upcoming UFC Mexico City card on Feb. 24. This isn’t just hearsay, multiple insiders have spilled the beans to MMA Fighting.
Now, hold your horses. Zellhuber and Prado have only verbally agreed to this face-off. The ink hasn’t hit the paper yet, sources whisper.
But let’s not forget the main event. UFC Mexico City is gonna be lit with Brandon Moreno vs. Amir Albazi. They’ll be battling it out in a flyweight showdown at the Arena CDMX, right in the heart of Mexico City, Mexico.
Zellhuber, with a solid 14-1 record, is stepping back into the octagon. He’s hungry for his third straight UFC victory. Remember his decision over Lando Vannata? Or that $50,000 bonus he pocketed for his second-round submission win against Christos Giagos at Noche UFC last September? Yeah, he’s on a roll.
On the other side, we’ve got Prado. This 12-1 fighter from Argentina isn’t one to be taken lightly. He KO’d Ottman Azaitar in his last octagon appearance, earning himself a Performance of the Night check. Despite a decision loss to Jamie Mullarkey in his UFC debut, this 21-year-old prodigy is still a force to be reckoned with.
Oh, and a quick shout-out to Mike Heck. He’s been a great help with this report. So, there you have it, folks. Stay tuned for more updates.
