Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Booby Soul (ranked 2696 p4p, 22779 weight class) and Luis Caixinha (ranked 331 p4p, 574 weight class). Caixinha has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Luis Caixinha has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
