UFC Pittsburgh: David Branch

By Darryn Smith 

#UFCPittsburgh Fighter Focus: David Branch Our #8bitMMA Fighter Focus is former 2 division Pro Fight League(World Series of Fighting) World Champion David Branch. Branch was born in Brooklyn,New York. Fights out of Renzo Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. Branch's record stands today at (21-3). Branch will take on former UFC Middleweight Champion Luke Rockhold. Branch's first run in UFC run did not last too long. His mindset was not where it needed to be at the time and UFC released him. He is a veteran fighter that has gained new ground over past few months and has become more focused to make one more championship run with his new #UFC fight deal. This will be his 25th professional fight. Rockhold is looking for redemption too. This will not be a patty-cake fight. These guys have exposed each other's weakness during interviews promoting the fight leading up to #FightWeek and is turning them all into strengths to take each other out. This will be a dawg fight that may go one round...maybe two rounds...to a decision win. It is hard to tell sometimes with these fighters nowadays depending on how much they will respect each other inside The Octagon on #FightDay. Cheer on the fighters on this card as they will try to entertain you. In addition, boxing biggest fight of the year with #CaneloGGG will be live on pay-per-view too. Enjoy the night!
