Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jebidiah Tayber (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cray Willams (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Tayber might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Terravita - Adult Robot Kung Fu. Cray Willams will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
