Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Davdio Branko (ranked 802 p4p, 230 weight class) and Jay Reepo (ranked 65 p4p, 18 weight class). Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
