Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Kid Soplamocos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alejandro Sosa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Soplamocos might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ill Muchio Selvachio!!! by Ennio Morricone. Sosa has chosen Maria Conchita - Vamos A Bailar as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
