“Verbal agreements are in for a fight that promises non-stop action as Kyle Kingsbury will take on the ‘American Psycho’ Stephan Bonnar at UFC 139,” said UFC president Dana White today.
Bonnar who is most well known for his hard hitting scrap with Forrest Griffin in The Ultimate Fighter 1 Finale and of course his current quarrel with Josh Koscheck over a t-shirt his company made. Bonnar survived the deadly 3 strikes and your out after losing 3 straight, but is now currently riding a 2 fight winning streak with wins over Krzysztof Soszynski and most recently Igor Pokrajac.
Kinsbury was part of The Ultimate Fighter: Team Nogueira vs. Team Mir. He did not show his full form on the show, losing three different times throughout the season and finale. However, since the finale he is on an impressive 4 fight win streak. Two of those four fights were awarded fight of the night.
This is a great matchup if you are down with stand-up wars. Do you think that the winner of this match is propelled into the top 10?
