Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hideo Winters (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Linvoy Primus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Winters might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Power. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
