Co-main event

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tiagong Akyat (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Inuyasha Kagome (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Akyat might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Crank That. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
