Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Otso Jokinen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Slinky McDougle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jokinen's entrance music is E.S. Posthumus - Unstoppable. A fine choice. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
