Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jake Dredd (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Zhelyazko Velilkov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dredd might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Static X = Push it. Zhelyazko Velilkov has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

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?
