Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Jesse Pinkman (ranked 14 p4p, 24 weight class) and Juodasis Vaiduoklis (ranked 3 p4p, 4 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Pinkman might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Quavo & Takeoff - Hotel Lobby . 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.
