Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Noe Cunha (ranked 2741 p4p, 1453 weight class) and Archibald Schwarzenegger (ranked 231 p4p, 131 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?
