This weekend, the UFC has a double-header of fight cards, featuring Luke Rockhold against Michael Bisping on Friday night and Mauricio “Shogun” Rua against Ovince St. Preux on Saturday night. The co-main event on Saturday is a flyweight bout between former Tachi Palace Fights champ, Ian “Uncle Creepy” McCall and John Lineker.
This bout is big for the division, as McCall is ranked No. 3 and Lineker is sitting at No. 6. The winner of this fight is likely next in line for a title shot against the champ, Demetrious Johnson.
McCall and Johnson have fought twice in the past, with the first fight going to a draw and the second ending with a unanimous decision for Johnson. Lineker has never faced Johnson, but at 24-7 he has a lot of experience to face the champ with.
Let’s take a look at who has the edge on Saturday with this head-to-toe breakdown of McCall vs. Lineker.
