Under The Radar: David Branch vs Jared Cannonier

Under The Radar: David Branch vs Jared Cannonier

By Eduardo Ramon 

The UFC makes their return to Madison Square Garden once again when double champion Daniel Cormier faces Heavyweight contender Derrick Lewis for the UFC Heavyweight title.

While a plethora of UFC Middleweight contenders are on the card such as former champion Chris Weidman, Ronaldo Souza, Derrick Brunson, and Israel Adesanya, one fight stands out among the rest in terms of being overshadowed.

David Branch vs Jared Cannonier is an intriguing fight for both men. While Branch possesses dangerous submission skills, he also possesses one of the longest reach advantages on the entire roster with an 81 inch reach. Jared Cannonier last fought upcoming prospect Dominick Reyes, losing by TKO. Currently on a 2 fight losing streak, Cannonier will be looking to establish himself in the Middleweight division. An emphatic win over the likes of David Branch would certainly get his name noticed.

UFC 230 will take place on Saturday, November 3rd at the Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York.
