Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between John Braddock (ranked 1063 p4p, 120 weight class) and Dmitry Bezymyanny (ranked 1946 p4p, 231 weight class). Bezymyanny has chosen Little Richard - Long Tall Sally 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.
