Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mohammad Malik (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Adam Clark (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Malik might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Stronger. 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.

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jeff Spicoli (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Disis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Spicoli might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Wipe Out. Disis is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Polly Jean Harvey - Angry Johnny. Johnny Disis is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
