Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Belal Li (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Edson Aldrete (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Li comes to the cage accompanied by Fearless.

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.
