Team MMAD’s Brandon Wolff looks to destroy Yoshiyuki Yoshida at UFC 98

Brandon Wolff will take on Yoshiyuki Yoshida tomorrow at UFC 98 in Las Vegas. Both fighters are coming off brutal losses last December at the “UFC Fight For The Troops” event in Fayetteville, North Carolina. Yoshida was knocked unconcious on his feet then dropped again by Josh Koscheck, while Wolff was left with a huge swell on his head as the recipient of Ben Saunders’ devastating knees from the clinch.

Wolff (7-3) of Kailua’s Team MMAD is a one-time EliteXC competitor and holds a win over two-time UFC competitor Chad Reiner. Yoshida (10-3) had a nine-fight win streak before his loss to Koscheck.
