Fight By Fight Preview | UFC Fight Night: Santos vs Walker

What It Means: Thiago Santos is a flat-out knockout artist. He has all the technical abilities you’d want in a high-level striker, but at the end of the day, “Marreta” wants to put someone to sleep with a vicious strike. He does a good job of using kicks to the body and mixing it up to the head, but once he gets into the pocket, he throws wild and explosive hooks and uppercuts.
