I think this is a terrible matchup for the fans and for the marketability for both fighters. Neither will ever be a world champion, we know that. Both are very popular, though and are characters. I would pay to see either one fight. But not each other. It's a shame that one of them will get a loss out of this. I can't believe that they would not match up Pointon with someone who would guarantee a slugfest. Somebody earlier mentioned Solomon Hutcherson. He was so cocky on the show and got knocked out twice. He probably wants a chance to prove himself. That fight has excitement all over it. I'm sure he would be willing to trade with Pointon and nobody would be upset other than Mrs. Hutcherson if he got knocked out again. That way, Ross would get his 'W' and become even more of a fan favorite which equals more money for UFC. People want Luke Cummo to win also, because again, he is such a character.
I don't think Luke Cummo stands with Pointon AT ALL in this fight. I think any of us on this forum could tell Cummo how to fight Ross.
I don't get the matchup, marketing-wise.
