Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Damian Penn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Troy Ramsey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Penn might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ain't no rest for the wicked.. Ramsey has chosen Boom as his entrance music. Troy Ramsey will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
