Ovince Saint Preux V Jimi Manuwa: What will give down.

UFC 204 sees a clash between powerful Light Heavyweight contenders Ovince Saint Preux and Jimi Manuwa. 'Poster Boy' Manuwa has only tasted defeat twice in his professional career, with top contenders Alexander Gustafsson and Anthony Johnson finishing him. Manuwa has extreme one punch knockout power at 205lbs and is capable of catching any Light Heavyweight on his day. OSP's last contest came in the form of an Interim Light Heavyweight title fight with Jon 'Bones' Jones, losing via unanimous decision to the former P4P kingpin. Saint Preux sustained a broken forearm in the short notice fight with Jones, as he attempted to block a knee strike from the former Undisputed Light Heavyweight champion. That was arguably the biggest fight of OSP's career, while the Texan holds notable victories over Mauricio 'Shogun' Rua, winning via knockout and found a way past Rafael Cavalcante between his losses to Glover Teixiera and Jones. Jimi Manuwa on the other hand, has powerful hands with 13 of his 15 wins coming by knockout. A recent loss to Anthony 'Rumble' Johnson has derailed the 'Poster Boy's momentum but a dominant performance from either men could  see a charge toward the title in the stacked 205lbs division.

Ovince Saint Preux via split decision.
