Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jake Donnelly (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Murilo Pele (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Donnelly might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hand Of God by Black Market Hero. Pele has chosen Jump by Van Halen as his entrance music. Murilo Pele will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
