Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Chico Fontaine (ranked 3144 p4p, 1888 weight class) and Ippo Makunouchi (ranked 356 p4p, 221 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Fontaine might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to You're Gonna Learn a Lesson in this Delicatessen. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
