Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Herleifr Conchobhar (ranked 4253 p4p, 411 weight class) and Augusto Campos (ranked 7493 p4p, 553 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Conchobhar might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to PTSD. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
