The bantamweights bring precision and power to UFC Vegas 111 as Miles “Chapo” Johns looks to bounce back against Peru’s surging striker Daniel “Soncora” Marcos.
Johns, a gritty wrestler from Fortis MMA, aims to regain momentum after two tough decision losses, while Marcos enters the cage hoping to reestablish his striking dominance following his first professional defeat to Montel Jackson.
Both fighters are durable, technical, and hungry — but stylistically, this one feels like a chess match between volume and control versus power and persistence.

🧩 Fighter Breakdown
🟩 Daniel “Soncora” Marcos
Marcos has quietly become one of the most technical strikers in the bantamweight division. Averaging 5.1 significant strikes per minute with 53% accuracy, his efficiency and volume make him a nightmare for opponents who can’t match pace.
The Peruvian prospect combines crisp boxing with a heavy leg-kick arsenal, constantly switching rhythm to frustrate grapplers. Against Montel Jackson, he was too hesitant — but historically, Marcos thrives when he sets the tempo. Expect him to return to his forward-pressing style, using kicks to the body and jabs to maintain control.
If he keeps the fight standing, Marcos’ composure and volume edge should allow him to outpoint Johns over three rounds.
🟥 Miles “Chapo” Johns
A product of Fortis MMA, Johns is a compact, explosive wrestler with underrated boxing fundamentals. He lands at a 44% striking accuracy rate and mixes in timely level changes, which earned him five takedowns in his last fight.
Johns’ best weapon is his pressure-based wrestling, often chaining attempts to grind down more active strikers. His challenge against Marcos will be closing distance and maintaining control long enough to sway the judges — especially since Marcos is notoriously difficult to keep down.
If Johns can secure top position and mix ground strikes with control, he could flip the script as a live underdog.

🧠 Fight Analysis
This matchup boils down to volume vs control. Marcos will aim to stay long, use movement, and chip away with combinations. Johns, meanwhile, needs to slow the fight, turn it into a clinch-heavy grind, and score takedowns to offset the striking disparity.
Johns’ path to victory mirrors his early UFC blueprint: control the fence, land short elbows, and steal rounds with positional dominance. But Marcos’ footwork and distance management make him difficult to trap. If the Peruvian finds his jab early, he’ll be able to dictate the rhythm of exchanges.
Expect a tactical, competitive three-rounder where Marcos’ consistency and work rate keep him slightly ahead on the scorecards.
