Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jacare dos Diabos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pit Bull (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think dos Diabos might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Festivo - Zatoichi OST. Bull has chosen Let The Bodies Hit The Floor as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
