The first fight of the UFC 320 Prelims is a 153-pound catchweight bout between Daniel Santos vs. JooSang Yoo. This bout was initially scheduled to take place at 145 pounds. Yoo is coming off his UFC debut at UFC 316, where he beat Jeka Saragih by first-round knockout. On the other side, Santos has won three straight fights and most recently beat JeongYeong Lee at UFC 315 in May.
Check out my best bet for Daniel Santos vs. JooSang Yoo at tonight’s UFC 320 PPV.
JooSang Yoo Moneyline (+130)
Both fighters have elite teams, with Santos coming from Chute Boxe Diego Lima, which is the home of top UFC contenders Charles Oliveira and Ian Machado Garry. His opponent, Yoo, has the nickname, “Zombie Jr.”, which is an ode to former UFC title challenger, “The Korean Zombie” Chan Sung Jung. Jung has taken Yoo under his wing, and Yoo views him as a brother. Yoo has won three of his previous four fights by knockout. Santos is also an excellent striker, making this a tremendous matchup on the feet.
Yoo has a four-inch larger standing reach (71″ vs. 67″) while they are both 5’7″. Santos is a -155 favorite on DraftKings Sportsbook, as Yoo is a +130 underdog. With Yoo recently displaying a more aggressive side to himself over the last two years, it seems he is improving with each fight. Getting Yoo at +130 to beat Santos is a good play, as this contest is close on paper.
