Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jesus Slate (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Harry Stroker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Slate might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to A Divine Proclamation of Finishing the Present Existence. Stroker has chosen TBR - Bigger Than Kiss as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
