Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Philo Beddoe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hector Davis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Beddoe might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Stranglehold/ Ted Nugent. Davis has chosen Not Afraid as his entrance music. Hector Davis has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
