Heavyweight match that could help

... the division get more interesting:

Chris Arreola v David Rodriguez. Rodriguez is 28-0 (26KOs) (thanks to Bostonmma for mentioning him in another thread).

I really liked the Arreola v Witherspoon fight. Might not have been the cleanest fights.... but finally two heavies working at a high output, throwing and landing.... fighting like they gave a damn.

Rodriguez is real slow, and has rightfully been babied. Witherspoon should face either Ray Austin or the Barrett/Fields winner.

Can't believe I already forgot his name, but who was the other Samoan heavyweight prospect?

I don't think there are any HW matches that need to be made between two Americans right now.

Thanks for the name, I'm going to have to follow up on him.

The guy I couldn't think of is actually Tongan - Bowie Tupou
