Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ezequiel Calderon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jicker Larndorf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Calderon might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "One Rhythm (Da Yard Riddim Mix)" by Debi Nova. Ezequiel Calderon has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
