Ott, a standout amateur wrestler, is veteran of the Bellator Fighting Championships. Normally a competitor in the 185 and 205 lbs. division, Ott is currently walking at 225 lbs.
“(John Ott) might be a little heavy for the fight but the extra weight he is carrying is all muscle,” said Titan Fighting CEO Joe Kelly. “From a pure strength standpoint, he will be able to go in and compete with Bobby. His strong amateur wrestling credentials will also potentially allow him to neutralize Bobby’s takedowns and force the fight to stay on the feet.”
