Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Sean Strickland (ranked 767 p4p, 1282 weight class) and Cuervo Oquendo (ranked 108 p4p, 172 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?
