JULIO ARCE VS DANIEL SANTOS LOWDOWN

Currently 2-3 in his last five fights, Julio Arce (17-5) will be desperate to get back to winning ways this weekend. Arce is coming off of a defeat to Song Yadong back in December of 2021. Arce’s last win came against Andre Ewell. Julio will be hoping to put on a flawless performance this weekend at UFC 273.

It’s been over two years since MMA fans have last seen Daniel Santos (10-1) in action. Several fight cancellations have delayed the Brazilian's return to action. In his last fight, Santos picked up a submission win over Nizambek Zhunusov. In his last five fights, Santos has only lost once as he looks to show UFC fans what he’s capable of this weekend.

JULIO ARCE VS DANIEL SANTOS PREDICTION

Looking at the tale of the tape, both men share the same height at 5’7. This fight will certainly be one to watch.

Santos is always the aggressor inside the cage and is fascinating to watch. When it comes to intense scraps, Arce is no stranger as well.

From the first bell, we suspect that Arce will look to take control of the striking exchanges as Santos tends to take a lot of strikes. Even though Santos is very unpredictable in his unique striking, Arce will be cautious and pick his moments throughout the fight.
