In an exciting rematch at UFC 116, Krzysztof Soszynski and Stephan Bonnar will face off. At UFC 110, that went three rounds, these two fighters fought a wild, brutal fight against each other. The problem was that this fight was waved off with a head butt from Krzysztof Soszynski.
Between two competitors that have the potential to be one of the most exciting fights in recent history, this rematch should produce a wild match. Time will tell if recent history plays a part in the outcome of this matchup, even though these two fighters have gone in different directions recently.
Krzysztof Soszynski, UFC odds favorite, has been on a great streak in the past little while. In whatever way he can, he has been finding a way to win matches. Out of his last 8 matches, he has managed to win 7 of them. To continue with the attitude that it is his fight to lose, this sort of momentum can help a fighter like him. It can take away his concerns of his opponent and focus more on what he needs to do to win.
Recently, Stephan Bonnar has been on a bit of a slide. Even in his fight at UFC 110, we have seen what he is capable of in the fight. He battled through that one, but was not able to finish the fight.
Due to a cheap head butt, even though he lost partly, it is difficult to excuse him for all of his past struggles. He will need this one if he hopes to turn around his current trend and he has lost his last three matches.
