The featherweight division in the UFC always seems to intrigue us with the power their fighters pack. As we are closing in on the Fight Night on October 7, we take a look at a matchup that will sweep the fight fans across the world off their feet.
In the featherweight bout, we have Bill Algeo Vs. Alexander Hernandez at the UFC APEX stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada city. This division might have some of the most interesting fighters and this fight is something one cannot miss.
Bill Algeo still has the capability of striking and enough cardio to grapple although he is the older fighter, and Hernandez does not pack the skills to cause enough damage to Algeo. Moreover, Algeo has a crazy advantage in this fight, and we are still not sure if Hernandez is going to be able to make the weight or not. Since he’s been fighting at 155lbs all this time.

Hernandez on the other hand has transitioned back to 145lbs (featherweight) after fighting at 155lbs (lightweight). His last victory came after defeating lightweight veteran Jim Miller via decision. Alexander has a record of 14-6 and at just 31 years of age, he is looking forward to dominating at 145.

Our pick for this fight would be Bill Algeo, to win via submission. Bill has a huge gas tank and has won many fights that way, so he might just take the fight to the ground to grapple and submit Hernandez. Who are you picking for this fight? Let us know in the comments.
