It seems likely that Ponzinibbio vs. Jingliang will be placed on the main card considering it features two former top-15 welterweights who are exciting.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/ufc\/welterweight-contender-santiago-ponzinibbio-makes-long-awaited-ufc-return-against-muslim-salikhov\/\">It should be noted that Ponzinibbio was already expected to fight on this card against Muslim Salikhov<\/a>, who had to withdraw from the bout after testing positive for COVID-19. Similarly, Jingliang was supposed to fight at a recent UFC Vegas event but he fell off the card when his opponent Dwight Grant tested positive for the coronavirus.<\/p>\n<p>Ponzinibbio (27-3) was one of the top-10 welterweights in the world after knocking out Neil Magny in November 2018, <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/ufc\/santiago-ponzinibbio-tests-positive-for-covid-19\/\">but he hasn&#8217;t fought since then due to numerous issues and a positive COVID-19 test of his own<\/a>. Ponzinibbi is 9-2 overall in the UFC and he holds notable wins over Magny, Mike Perry, and Gunnar Nelson, among others. The Argentinian is extremely heavy-handed, with 15 wins coming by way of knockout. With Ponzinibbio having missed over two years of action, the UFC clearly wanted to give him a tune-up fight against someone outside the top-15, though Jingliang is no slouch.<\/p>\n<p>Jingliang (17-6) has actually been in the UFC since 2014 and has racked up a 9-4 record in that time, making him one of the most underrated welterweights in the promotion. Jingliang is actually coming off of a decision loss to Magny, the last man that Ponzinibbio beat, a loss which snapped a three-fight win skid. Overall, Jingliang has won seven of his last nine fights in the UFC, with five knockouts in that stretch.<\/p>\n<p>Who do you think wins, Santiago Ponzinibbio or Li Jingliang?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An intriguing welterweight bout between Santiago Ponzinibbio and Li Jingliang has been added to UFC Fight Night: Holloway vs. Kattar.
