Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Jens Rizer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mike McDermott (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Rizer might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to 20-2-Life - Servin a Deuce . 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.
