Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Deon Carruthers Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Juho Koski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Let's see how much it's taken out of him. 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?
