Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Guilherme Alves (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chev Chelios (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Alves might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Guerreiro by Curumin. Chelios has chosen In Waves as his entrance music. Chev Chelios has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Guilherme Alves's chin.
