Good to see Makdessi back in action.

Should be a good stand up fight.

Don't like John Makdessi as a person (he owes alot of people money),

but I think he got robbed twice against Alan Patrick and Yancy (good guy) Medeiros.

Isn't Mehdi a kickboxing champion or something? Does Makdessi wrestle or does he keep it standing?

okay

I always get Cruickshank and Makdessi confused, and was thinking that John had been cut, when it was really Daron.

What ever happened with that Fear the Fighter business and their history of not paying sponsored athletes? I remember reading a Makdessi interview that sounded shady as fuck

 

[Anderson Silva-esque]

I like Makdessi, got robbed against Medeiros and he carries favour with Dana so all he needs is a fight like this to get back up to his level of competition.

 

[Mondo Freaks]

I liked Baghdad on TUF. Should be good fight.

 

[Flex Plexico]

Breese vs Strickland is money

and I'm assuming that this is the fake DHK for this one... A dildo if you will, and won't yellow card me

Quick Google search, Moose took Makdessi to court lol

Nice fun scrap on the feet. Just bought my tickets to 199 today so I'm happy about this.
