Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Riley McCollins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aodhan o hAodha (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think McCollins might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Go Getter. o hAodha has chosen Cursum Perficio by Enya 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.
