Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jigfu Cambrona (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Duo Maxwell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Cambrona might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Erge-Sholee Biste Turda. Maxwell has chosen Can't Stop as his entrance music. 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.
