Co-main event

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Benson Whyte (ranked 70 p4p, 11 weight class) and Sameh Mahmoud (ranked 41 p4p, 6 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Whyte might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Bob Marley - Jammin. 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?
