However, Johns is determined to bounce back against the formidable underdog Marcos. Standing at 5-foot-7 with a 68-inch reach, Johns is known for his striking power.

On the other hand, Daniel Marcos (17-1) has shown resilience in the octagon, holding a record of 4-1-0-1 in the UFC since 2023. After a ‘No Contest’ ruling against Aoriqileng, he secured victories against Adrian Yanez, but suffered a loss to Montel Jackson in his last fight. Marcos, who also stands at 5-foot-7 but brings a 69-inch reach, looks to prove his mettle after his recent loss.

Marcos, known for his accuracy, lands about 53% of his significant strikes and averages 5.11 strikes per minute compared to Johns’ 3.38. This advantage may help Marcos if the fight turns into a brawl.
