Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kim Jong Un (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roman Gruzinsky (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Jong Un might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Aegukka. Gruzinsky has chosen Россия as his entrance music. 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.
