For many a welterweight, the prospect of fighting Albert Tumenov would be terrifying. The Russian has dispatched his last four UFC opponents with cold, violent efficiency. To make matters worse, he's still only 24 years old and largely unknown to all but the most hardcore MMA fan.
But for Lorenz Larkin, these are the kinds of fights that get him up in the morning. The ones that make him go on long runs throughout training camp to cut to 170 pounds.
A title shot would be great. Larkin even has a win over the current welterweight champion, Robbie Lawler.
