Vicente Luque: player overview
The 30-year-old Brazilian Vicente Luque made his professional debut in 2009. Before the fight at UFC on ESPN 40, there were 30 fights in the fighter's piggy bank, in which 21 victories were obtained. Luque is a balanced athlete, who has 19 early victories behind him: 11 KO and 8 submishnov. But Vicente lost 75% of the fights on points, including the last failure (a 5-round duel) against Belal Muhammad.
Geoffrey Neal: player overview
American Jeff Neal is only 1 year older than his upcoming opponent. He has been playing pro since 2012, having scored a record of 14-4 during this time. Due to the cool footwork, Neil creates a lot of problems for opponents in the rack, and the kickboxing base helps to win by KO/TKO (8 wins thanks to the shock technique). Jeff also has a good defense against takedowns – 85%, but the American himself in the UFC on average spends 0.17 attempts of transfers to the ground per fight.
Vicente Luque Geoffrey Neal Prediction
In the second most important fight at UFC on ESPN 40, we want to take a closer look at Vicente Luque's victory. The Brazilian is much more active in the stalls, he has no problems with cardio. Luque couldn't do anything against Belal Muhammad, but Jeff Neal is not the guy who will run the entire distance without mistakes and will not give his opponent a chance to finish.
