Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rock Silva (ranked 1249 p4p, 1714 weight class) and Zdravko Zdravkov (ranked 22 p4p, 37 weight class). Zdravkov has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. I can't wait for this one - let's get the fighter introductions out of the way and get this one started!
