Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Aslanbek Barayev (ranked 7088 p4p, 418 weight class) and Sisu Sisu (ranked 5605 p4p, 366 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Barayev might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Antirespect - There. 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?
