Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Silvain Bourcier (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Endleman Schubert (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bourcier might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Misha Calvin - Ready or not. Schubert has chosen Seve by Tez Cadey 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.
