Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Antonio Carlos Ferreira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vyacheslav Kalashnikov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ferreira might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Killers. Kalashnikov has chosen CMX - Kaikkivaltiaan Peili as his entrance music. 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 Vyacheslav Kalashnikov was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
