Media Mexico's next UFC Champ fights on Saturday. Daniel Zellhuber

[Rhood]

He thinks he's the Mexican Petr Yan.
Gives away the 1st round, then believes he can catch up in the later rounds.

 

[Koro_11]

Daniel Zellhuber is from Mexico City, 12-0 only 23 years old, strong chin, good talent, 82% finish rate, 7 KO's and a shit ton of potential. Also hes an unusually tall 6"1 Mexican that will be a huge lightweight. The Goof sees something in him and I do too. He can definitely make it far at lightweight and maybe even become champ.




The UFC just released a mini doc in lead up to Daniels fight on Saturday



Do you think this Mexican fighter has championship potential?

No.

 

[Pompey Junglist]

His "fight instincts" are revealed to be novice now he's not fighting cans.

Clearly he's got some good skills and attributes but he has a huge amount to learn if he's going to become a contender.

 

[yougetKTFO]

If he’s next Mexico gon be waiting a while…

 

[markys00]

155? Great another manlet.

Double yellows for racism?

 

[CieloLuce]

He shat the bed tonight. Could be a valuable lesson for his young career.

 

[Lights Out 101]

Daniel must've been paid off by the bookies. How you gonna lose to the guy who was outstruck by goddamn Jordan Leavitt.

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

Anytime I see a person from Mexico or South America with a German last name

this

 

[wisdom blows]

Lmao

155? Great another manlet.

tell us you’re obese without telling us you’re obese.

 

[Siver!]

Another undefeated prospect hits 'the wall' again unfancied opposition.

Time to turn down the hype on fighters that have clearly had well-manicured résumés leading to the UFC.

Some of these kids ain't ready.

Go easy on him, only 23. We shouldn't write off fighters that easily. Especially lightweights. Charles Oliveira is a testament to that

 

[LoneLynx]

Not like he got completely outclassed but Ogden was too big a step up for the kid tonight

Ogden is very complete, a grappling specialist but with really sound striking, and he’s been grinding in the gym for 20 years.

 

[ryun253]

Mexican Sage?

 

[Kenny95]

Kids tall and well built and cuts a lot of weight but has limited skills and he's still young but it's not like he is a novice with more than a handful of solid pro fights under his belt

 

[Pompey Junglist]

Go easy on him, only 23. We shouldn't write off fighters that easily. Especially lightweights. Charles Oliveira is a testament to that

Not writing him off at all. Just saying its a long journey he's got ahead of him and future success isn't a given for young talent.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Another Dana Wanker Contender Series bust.

Just cancel the show already.

 

[The XL]

Looked pretty rough in there

 

[BForrester]

Who was Mexico's first UFC champ? Don't they need to have a first before they have a "next"?
