Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jett Denovan (ranked 1679 p4p, 2666 weight class) and Robert Bennett (ranked 188 p4p, 307 weight class). Bennett is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Tyron Woodley . These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
