Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Randy Power (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michael Scott (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Power might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Enter Sandman. 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.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Pull Over (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and David Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Over might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Insane Clown Posse - In Yo Face. David Silva has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
