Manel Kape expects easy win over Joshua Van

Flyweight contender predicts a one-sided title fight

UFC flyweight contender Manel Kape expects Joshua Van to be too slow in a potential title fight.

Although there hasn’t been an official announcement yet, there are now many signs suggesting that the two might fight for a title. Joshua Van is a relative newcomer when it comes to being a serious contender in the division. Manel Kape, on the other hand, wants to finally prove that he is the number one fighter at 125 pounds. In an interview with Daniel Cormier, Manel Kape explains why he actually sees himself winning this matchup decisively.

"When I say this fight is going to be too easy, it’s going to be too easy. He’s going to be very slow. The way he throws the punches is going to be slow to me"

he said.

He's pretty convinced that the difference in speed will be too big a factor to make for a truly close fight. This is a clear stance, since, in his opinion, there's no way he can lose the match. Whether that will actually happen remains to be seen; the only thing that's clear is that these are bold words from a confident contender.
