Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Diego Lezema (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimmy Morison (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lezema might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Weird Al Yankovic - Fat song. Morison has chosen Riot Maker as his entrance music. 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.
