A three-time NCAA national champion wrestler at Penn State
\nUniversity, Nickal was one of the most-highly touted MMA prospect
\nin recent memory. He has largely delivered on that promise, winning
\nnine of his first 10 professional outings. That includes a 6-1 UFC
\nrecord, where he has finished all but one of his triumphs inside
\nthe distance. Nickal defeated Jacob Cardenas via decision at RAF 1
\nand was later expected to face Yoel Romero<\/a>
\nbut the pairing was cancelled when \u201cSoldier of God\u201d missed
\nweight.<\/p>\n

McEnelly, meanwhile, was an All-American as a freshman at the
\nUniversity of Minnesota before winning a national title at 184
\npounds in his sophomore year.<\/p>\n
