Could Clay Guida vs. Bobby Green steal the show?
Every once in a while, a fight between veterans is made that makes you instantly wonder why it didn’t happen sooner. Such is the case with the lightweight featured prelim bout between [autotag]Clay Guida[/autotag] and [autotag]Bobby Green[/autotag].
The duo have a combined for 89 professional fights over 29 years of fighting experience, and most of that time they’ve fought in the same division. And they were, in fact, scheduled to fight in 2018, but Green had to withdraw from the fight.
Saturday, the unconventional duo will finally cross paths.

Both have awkward styles. Both are capable of putting together “Fight of the Night,” and in Guida’s case, “Fight of the Year”-caliber performances. Both are capable of head-scratching off nights, too, but usually in ways that are interesting rather than boring.
You never know what you’re going to get when either of these guys steps in the cage. But if you add in that Guida (35-19 MMA, 15-13 UFC) has dropped two of three and Green (24-10-1 MMA, 5-5-1 UFC) his past two, you get the sense this fight will have an urgency that will bring out the best out of both, making it very much worth watching.
