Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jorge Velazquez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryu Chyn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Velazquez's entrance music is Cowboys from hell. A fine choice. Chyn has chosen I wish as his entrance music. Jorge Velazquez has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
