“(He is) a very, very tough guy (and) a very strong, stout-looking dude with very scary power in his hands,” Semelsberger said. “Very good grappling and comes from a very good grappling school. It’s going to be a very interesting fight, a very exciting fight.
“I haven’t been overthinking it too much. I know I’ve done my homework, and I’m ready to just go in there and feel it out and be ready to fight. If I had to guess, I would expect things to start out a teensy bit slow, but once they pop off, it’s going to pop off.”
Despite those quick knockouts that put Semelsberger on the radar, it still seems like he is a little under-the-radar in the talent-rich 170-pound division. A win over Wells, while not a surefire assumption, gets Semelsberger to the doorstep of some bigger and more consequential contests in the division.
