Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Wu Fei Chung (ranked 1421 p4p, 154 weight class) and Brando Reigns (ranked 862 p4p, 100 weight class). Fei Chung comes to the cage accompanied by God of Gamblers. Reigns comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Tragedy kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
