Punahele Soriano
Daniil Donchenko

Punahele Soriano is riding some serious momentum into Paris, and fans are hyped to see if he can keep it rolling. Puna's put together a nasty three fight win streak at welterweight, including that brutal 31 second knockout of Uros Medic back in January 2025. That southpaw power is legit scary, and he's looked way more comfortable since moving up from middleweight where Dustin Stoltzfus caught him with that rear naked choke back in 2023. Daniil Donchenko is no joke though. The Ukrainian just knocked out Theodor Berggren in the second round over in Baku this past June, landing 73 strikes before finishing it with punches.

Key Storylines
  • Soriano's three fight win streak meets Donchenko's rising momentum
  • Southpaw power versus orthodox volume striking at distance
  • Both guys have recent knockout wins and finishing instincts
Finishing Window

With both fighters landing early finishes in their last outings, the first round and a half is when someone's likely getting caught.

Before that, he went the distance with Alex Morono and stopped Rodrigo Sezinando in the first round. Donchenko's been active and he's building his own streak, so this is a legit test for both guys. Here's the thing about this matchup. Soriano's got that one punch power from the southpaw stance, but he's also shown he can wrestle when he needs to, landing 4 takedowns against Veretennikov. Donchenko fights orthodox and likes to work at distance, throwing volume until he finds the finish.

Both guys have proven they can end fights early, which is why people are calling this a potential banger. Soriano's been more active lately with fights in February and October of last year, while Donchenko's coming off that June knockout. The welterweight division is packed, and a win here puts either guy in position to crack the rankings. Soriano's looking to make it four straight, Donchenko wants to prove he belongs with the division's best.
