Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Takeshi Sendou (ranked 22709 p4p, 281 weight class) and Earl Ravenberg (ranked 23143 p4p, 303 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Sendou might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Skillet - Feel Invincible. 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.
