Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Antonio Manoel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Maukka Moukuttaja (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Manoel might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hino do Flamengo. Moukuttaja has chosen Born to be alive as his entrance music. This should be a great matchup!
