UFC commentator Jon Anik thinks about Julianna Pena’s best route to victory.
In the UFC 316 co-main event, Julianna Pena and Kayla Harrison will clash with the UFC Women’s Bantamweight Championship. The general opinion is that Harrison will eventually rise to the top of the mountain to claim money, but as we know, Pena is more of a fighter than he can elicit any major upset.
That being said, Juliana Pena must propose one of the best performances of her life if she causes enough problems for Kayla Harrison to win. We know that she’s trying to get into her head through a lot of garbage stories, but no one really knows whether it plays any kind of role in the fight itself.
No matter how you view it, this is an absolutely engaging matchup and we really believe it can go either way. In the eyes of Jon Anik, the voice of the UFC, Julianna Pena has a chance to win. It depends on whether she can do it or not.
John Annick on Juliana Pena’s Chance
“Juliana Pena is the rejection of an athlete who is denied. It’s either off her back, or trying to cut Kela early if she collapses, or force a crazy strike exchange. There’s a way for Pena to achieve success and have an interesting fight.
Fight the fans as this promises to be really fun on Saturday nights.
