Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Wilfred Bongderson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sydney Bussel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bongderson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Red Hot Chili Peppers - Breaking The Girl. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
