Yeah

He’s actually a friend of my brothers. He went the distance with Gray Maynard before. Lost via decision. Plus he’s won 7 of his last 8.

Don't sleep on Bryan either. This might be his breakout though he wont win against Hector.

The more interesting thing about him though his brother Kyle – he has the best hybrid MMA clinch in the world. It’s truly innovative and pure MMA evolution. Not as deadly as Anderson’s for example but it’s gonna be a gamechanger once it’s taken to the next step. Too bad people won’t get to appreciate it since he won’t ever get beyond the regional scene IMO. BE did an awesome write up on it.
