John Makdessi vs. Kyle Watson

John Makdessi(8-0) was rumored to be facing TUF 12 winner Jonathan Brookins(12-3) at UFC 129, but has now been confirmed to face Kyle Watson(13-6-1) instead according to MMAjunkie.

Makdessi will have a huge advantage on the feet, but his ground game is still a question mark. We’ll see if Watson is able to take Makdessi down, otherwise expect Makdessi to put on a striking clinic.
