Heading into UFC 195 last night (Sat., Jan. 2, 2016) in Las Vegas, Nevada, one somewhat unheralded pay-per-view (PPV) fight really stood out as having great potential for fireworks.
Albert Tumenov, 16-2 and 4-1 UFC, had earned his reputation as a formidable boxer, finishing three of his last four opponents after a rocky debut in the promotion.
But, he was meeting a flashy kickboxer in Lorenz Larkin, a man who owns a victory over hard-nosed Robbie Lawler and had looked flawless in his fights so far at Welterweight after dropping down nearly one year ago.
Styles make fights.
