Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Maxwell Jeremy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bobby Sullivan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Jeremy might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Pantera - Walk. Sullivan has chosen "Summertime Killer" by Luis Bacalov as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. This should be fireworks!
