Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Daniel Speed (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Daniel Vieira Moreira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Speed might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Amon Tobin / El Cargo. Daniel Speed has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
