UFC APEX – UFC bantamweight Rob Font isn’t trying to get into a drag out brawl with Kyler Phillips at UFC Vegas 99 on Saturday night, but he won’t back away from one either.
Earlier on media day Phillips wouldn’t say whether or not he was looking for a bloody war with Font on Saturday.
“I’m with him. I hope I don’t leave his place bloodied up and on the stretcher again and going back to the hospital,” Font told reporters on Wednesday.
“But if it has to come down to it I’m the guy for it. I will get in there and do what I have to do to try to get the W, try to get the finish, but in a perfect world I get in there and leave as clean as possible.”
Font (20-8) will get Phillips at UFC Vegas 99. Phillips has proven to be a tough fight for anybody, a fun fight for the fans, and a guaranteed entertaining bout for as long as it lasts.
“I think this is a great matchup. Fight of the night for sure. He brings it. He starts off fast. I believe I start off fast as well. He has a wild kicking style. He’ll pull guard and try to jump on submissions,” he said.
“He just beat Pedro Munhoz. This is another tough fight. He might not have the ranking, or the big name yet, but this is just as dangerous as (of) a fight as anybody else I’ve fought.”
