Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bob Fury (ranked 268 p4p, 10 weight class) and Bo Teebs (ranked 2877 p4p, 116 weight class). Teebs has chosen Ghost - Square Hammer as his entrance music. 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?
