Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ismail Saidov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Purity Gutz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Saidov might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Shamhan Daldaev - Eto Kavkaz. Gutz has chosen Hit em up 2pac as his entrance music. Ismail Saidov has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
