Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kimmo Reki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Steve Stevenson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Reki might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Knife - We Share Our Mother's Health (Ratatat Remix). Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the ring.
