Alberto Mina It’s not easy to be unbeaten in MMA after a while – and 11 fights in without a loss is nothing to sneeze at. Alberto Mina knows this, and he said the pressure to keep that loss column without any ticks in it is something real, and something he feels every fight. For his next test, Mina (11-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) will be the underdog on Saturday against Yoshihiro Akiyama (14-5 MMA, 2-4 UFC) on the main card of UFC Fight Night 79, the UFC’s debut in South Korea. UFC Fight Night 79 takes place at Olympic Gymnastics Arena in Seoul, and the entire event streams on UFC Fight Pass. After a TKO win over Shinsho Anzai in his promotional debut at UFC Fight Night 48 in August 2014, Mina has had some time off due to injuries and what he said was a “family issue.” Now the Brazilian is matched up against one of Asia’s most popular welterweights in Akiyama. “I don’t feel truly comfortable – in fact no one can be comfortable in the UFC,” Mina told MMAjunkie.
