Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Juan Dela Cruz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tony English (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dela Cruz might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Bebot by Black Eyed Peas. Juan Dela Cruz has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
