Duquesnoy vs Ware at UFN 127
A bantamweight bout has been added to UFC London on March 17th as Tom Duquesnoy announced a bout against Terrion Ware on his Instagram page this morning. Duquesnoy (15-2, 1 no contest) is coming off his first defeat in five years, losing a split decision to Cody Stamann this past October. Ware (17-7) has gone 0-2 in the UFC, also losing to Stamann and most recently dropping a decision to top prospect Sean O’Malley.
I expect Duquesnoy to open as a heavy betting favorite in this bout. Ware has power and athleticism, but Duquesnoy is still one of the more well-rounded prospects in the sport. I expect he bounces back here.
