Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dons Dasuffrah (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Scott Reckless (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dasuffrah might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Rza - Grits. Reckless has chosen No Heroes by Converge 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.
