Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dmitriy Bukharin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brokki Leboswski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bukharin might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" by Brad Fiedel. 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.
