Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Vitali Zaitsef (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Thai Bo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Zaitsef comes to the cage accompanied by Mother Puncher - Mastodon. Bo has chosen Дамат - Новый & as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
