Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jan Jedrzejczyk (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ali Mouba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Jedrzejczyk might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Chase And Status - Fire In Your Eyes ft. Maverick Sabre. Ali Mouba is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
