Michael Patt (15-2-0) 6’0”/205 lbs., fighting out of Dayton, Ohio, is no stranger to the UFC, as he is a training partner of former middleweight champion Rich Franklin and a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt under lightweight standout Jorge Gurgel. Now he will get a chance to carve his own name in the Octagon™ history books as he pursues a win against Tim “The Barbarian” Boetsch. Fighting out of Sunbury , PA , and a student in the art of Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do, Boetsch (7-2-0) 6’1”/205 lbs., made believers of any doubters in his UFC debut in February as he thrashed David Heath in a single round. While first impressions are nice, consistency makes champions, and no one knows that better than the 27-year old, who plans on notching his second UFC win against Patt.
