Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Mitsugi Kitahachi (ranked 2719 p4p, 5528 weight class) and Mano Paquiao (ranked 292 p4p, 484 weight class). Chooooooooon!

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.
