Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Brady Goodridge (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hayato Masato (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Goodridge might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Army Of The Pharaohs-Seven. Hayato Masato told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
