Welcome to Midnight Mania!
It’s been a very long time since we final noticed Dominick Reyes contained in the Octagon, however per a report from MMAJunkie, that’s about to alter. Reyes is lastly set to return to motion towards a ranked opponent within the heavy-handed Ryan Spann. The pair at the moment are scheduled to throw down at UFC 281 on Nov. 12 from inside Madison Sq. Backyard in New York Metropolis, New York.
Reyes’ 18-month layoff is completely comprehensible and truly a smart resolution. After his razor-thin and extremely debatable loss to Jon Jones for the UFC Mild Heavyweight title, Reyes type of fell aside. “The Devastator” has admitted that the controversial loss affected him mentally, and people struggles carried into the cage. In his two journeys again to the Octagon, Reyes was fairly violently stopped by each Jan Blachowicz and Jiri Prochazka. All three of these names talked about are present or former champions, so that they aren’t unhealthy losses, nevertheless it was good to see Reyes reset and get better earlier than attempting to leap again into the fray.
“Superman” Spann rose fairly shortly up the ladder, breaking into the High 15 after only a few fights at 205 lbs. Maybe it was a bit too shortly, as Spann’s four-fight win streak and total momentum stalled as soon as he met extra expert opposition. He’s alternated wins and losses in his final 4 bouts, most lately strangling Ion Cutelaba in an excellent showing.
