2. Matt van Buren vs. Corey Anderson
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJXNhUKhmuc Weight Class: Light Heavyweight Now it's time for the second TUF final, at light heavyweight. Corey Anderson (2-0) has a bit of an interesting story: he's in the MMA game thanks to Ben Askren. Askren, the undefeated former Bellator welterweight champ who will fight for ONE FC's welterweight title next month (and who should be in the UFC, boring style be damned), suggested to sport to Anderson after the two trained together for the Olympic wrestling team. He turned pro in 2013, and has won both his matches thus far. Still, that's only two fights. Matt van Buren (6-2), on the other hand, boasts a slightly more expansive resume, with eight fights in total, four in Bellator, where he went 2-2. Pro since 2010, experience will be a big difference here. van Buren via decision.
