Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Vitali Kersikov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and David Wilson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Kersikov might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Offspring - All i Want. Wilson has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
