Weili Zhang Has Chance To Regain The Crown
2 years agoAfter losing her strawweight championship by first-round knockout and being unsuccessful in her bid to reclaim it in a rematch, Weili Zhang (22-3) will get another chance to regain her crown when she meets Carla Esparza in the co-main event of UFC 281 this Saturday. A dangerous finisher in the strawweight ranks, 18 of her 22 career wins have come by the finish, with 11 of them coming via knockout/TKO, including her most recent victory -- a second-round TKO via spinning back fist in June. DraftKings sees Zhang regaining her crown as one of the night's biggest favorites with a salary of $9,400. Throughout her UFC career, Zhang averages 92.2 fantasy points per contest. Esparza has proven to be a tricky test, and it will hinge a lot on which version appears in the Octagon to face the hungry challenger.
