Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Dameon Machida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Neo Nova (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Machida might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Brazilian Death. 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.

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Santiago Martinez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lorenzo Snow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Martinez might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Major Lazer - Pon De Floor. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Lorenzo Snow was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
