Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Killian Gallagher (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Terry Bull (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gallagher might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Kakkahätä 77 - Tää on sun helvetti. Bull has chosen The Last Shadow Puppets "The Age Of The Understatement" as his entrance music. Terry Bull has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Killian Gallagher's chin.
