Former WEC bantamweight stand-out, Antonio Banuelos has been speaking about his upcoming fight with former champion, Miguel Torres at UFC 126 this weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada, explaining this one is going to be fun from start to finish.Speaking via UFC.com, Banuelos said:
“It’s going to be an all-out brawl. Fifteen minutes of fun. Miguel is a great fighter but we worked on a good gameplan. I took his reach into consideration but you’ve got to remember – everybody’s got reach on me so I’m used to it. I have my own style and I know it’s going to match up very well against him.”
“It’s a huge fight. This would put me in line for a title shot. I’ve been wanting a title shot for a long time and he’s a former champion so this is a huge steppingstone for me … I’m super-excited. I’ve always wanted to fight at a UFC. Every time I’ve gone and watched a UFC, in the back of my mind I thought, ‘Oh my God I want to fight in front of one of these crowds. This is the coolest thing ever. Now it’s a dream come true so I’m climbing up the walls, I can’t wait for it.”
Banuelos has won four of his last five fights inside the cage including wins over top contender, Scott Jorgensen and most recently, Chad George. The fighter has won seven of eighteen fights via TKO or knockout, with ten coming by way of decision.
