Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Frank Sikes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Buster Brutus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Sikes might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Bye Bye Bye. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
