Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Toby Boi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Grease (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Boi might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "Stricken" by Disturbed. John Grease will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
