Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Caius Cosades Jr (ranked 4082 p4p, 3632 weight class) and Takeshi Murata (ranked 170 p4p, 296 weight class). Cosades Jr's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Morrowind. 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?
