Lanky Dutch kickboxer Stefan Struve is fighting heavyweight fan-favorite Pat Barry this Saturday night (Oct. 1) at UFC on Versus 6 from the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C.
That's the tall and short of it.
Struve (21-5) strung together back-to-back wins over Christian Morecraft (UFC 117) and Sean McCorkle (UFC 124) before getting knocked clean out by Travis Browne at the UFC 130 pay-per-view over the Memorial Day Weekend.
The "Skyscraper" is 5-3 under the Zuffa banner and widely considered one of the division's brighter prospects at just 23 years-old.
But his legs could be a prime target for the stocky strikes of Barry (6-3), who has finished three of his six wins via thunderous leg kicks, and that leaves Struve as a +160 underdog for this weekend's slugfest.
Barry was on the cusp of a dominating win over Cheick Kongo at UFC on Versus 4 earlier this year. That is, until "HD" recklessly charged in like a bloodthirsty banshee and got put to sleep.
Cheick, mate.
The shocking defeat dropped the New Orleans native to 3-3 inside the Octagon, but did little to diminish his fan appeal -- or his -195 betting line.
Anyone plunking down some coin in this titanic tilt?
