This should be a pretty good fight. Constant pressure will be Massenzio's strategy.

Hard-hitting Drew McFedries (7-3 MMA, 3-2 UFC) will meet UFC newcomer and former IFL fighter Mike Massenzio (10-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC) at UFC Fight Night 15 in September.
The fight, first reported by fiveouncesofpain.com, has since been confirmed by MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com).
The bout is likely to end up on the night's un-televised preliminary card. UFC Fight Night 15, which takes place at the Omaha Civic Auditorium in Omaha, Neb., features co-main events of Nate Diaz vs. Josh Neer and Mac Danzig vs. Clay Guida.
McFedries, a Team Miletich fighter, most recently defeated Marvin Eastman at The Ultimate Fighter 7 Finale. Like his other UFC victories -- over Jordan Radev and Alessio Sakara -- the win came via first-round knockout. His only losses in the UFC are to middleweight contenders Martin Kampmann and Patrick Cote.
Massenzio fought just once in the IFL and suffered a first-round submission loss to Danillo Villefort. The defeat snapped his nine-fight win streak, which included four-consecutive submission victories prior to his IFL debut. He fought primarily in the Reality Fighting and Ring of Combat organizations. According to fiveouncesofpain.com, the former collegiate wrestler signed a four-fight deal with the UFC.
This should be a pretty good fight. Constant pressure will be Massenzio's strategy.

I don't like that will end up on the un-televised prelimary card. I want to see Drew knock this guy out.
Well, Badfish-I got word after Massenzio's fight that he subbed McFedries in the first round. I guess you didn't get your wish. Tough ****, huh?
I dunno if that's considered a spoiler, but you may want to edit it. I could be wrong though.
Disappointing outcome. I expected the loser (is spoiler rules over yet?) to really have a big career but it doesn't seem to headed that way.
Yo Sherwood what's good dawg? Gimme da scoop!
