Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Felix Gaeta (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Douglas Augusto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gaeta might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to B.Y.O.B.. The crowd seem to be enjoying Augusto's choice of entrance music: Drowning Pool - Let The Bodies Hit The Floor. Felix Gaeta has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
