Editor's Prediction
Freire is now 38 years old, a significant age for a featherweight, and he's decided to take his shot in the UFC. His debut was a tough one, receiving a lesson from Yair Rodriguez. While Ige may not be on the same level as the Mexican, his extensive experience in the world's top promotion is undeniable. We believe Ige can comfortably neutralize the Brazilian's potential takedowns and outstrike him on the feet.
