Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Sao Alela (ranked 377 p4p, 447 weight class) and Peter Zonta (ranked 56 p4p, 65 weight class). Alela comes to the cage accompanied by Ground Zero (MOP). 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?
