Justin Gaethje vs Sean O'Connell
UFC presents some of the greatest mixed martial arts fights around this year. The upcoming Gaethje Vs O'Connell bout is one of these. The bout will take place in Boston (Massachusetts) on March 17th, and will be broadcast live on UFC FIGHT PASS. It will mark the first encounter between two former UFC champion heavyweight fighters. This should be a thrilling one. However, there are several factors to keep in mind as you watch the bout.
Gaethje is a UFC vet. He has fought four times and won three of them. O'Connell has also participated in three UFC fights including three bonus "Fight of the Night” fights. O'Connell has not been on a winning streak in UFC since May 2015. His record is therefore less than stellar.

Aldo had a few opportunities because of Edgar's aggressiveness.
Aldo was able walk at a pace that Edgar could not and kept the fight close through the first round.

FAQ
How can I learn self defence at home?
There are many methods to improve your self defence skills. Martial arts is the best place to begin. Martial arts are great as they teach you how defend yourself without the use of weapons. They build confidence and improve fitness. Most schools offer classes online, so you don't need to be present at a class. It is crucial to determine what kind of martial art you wish to learn.

If none of the options work, you can always fight back using all available means. Your naked hands are the most powerful weapon. You should learn how to use them correctly if you are not familiar with the basics.
