John Yannis is solid and can definitely have success in the UFC, but this is too much too soon. Marcus McGhee is a killer. Big powerful hands, solid cardio, good wrestling. I think Marcus is the better fighter everywhere and this is a pretty straight forward win for him.
Marcus McGhee
Marcus McGhee is a powerful guy with heavy hands, takedowns and one punch KOs all over his career. His takedown defense is solid and he has slick submissions that he uses in scrambles. He sets a pace and he carries his power late into fights. He is coming off the decision loss to Petr Yan where he moved showed and showcased toughness, but wasn't as fast early.
John Yannis
John Yannis is a powerful striker who lacks a bit of takedown defense. He does however do a nice job staying mobile and having clean boxing. He is a southpaw which can throw people off and he sends a beautiful inside leg kick from the back leg. He has clean technique and solid power, but is closer to one dimmensional than he is well rounded. He is coming off the KO win over Jamie Siraj where the striking was clean.
