Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bubba Gump (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Arto Bambang (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gump might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Fucking Hostile - Pantera. Bambang has chosen Suicidal Tendencies - Nobody Hears 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.
