Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Brandon Vee (ranked 180 p4p, 19 weight class) and Michael Proctor (ranked 1099 p4p, 125 weight class). Vee's entrance music is Da Mystery of Chessboxin by Wu-Tang Clan. A fine choice. 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.
