Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Justin Case (ranked 2360 p4p, 84 weight class) and Super Heavyweight (ranked 642 p4p, 26 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?
