Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Captain Evil (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and El Spico (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Evil might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Bad To The Bone. El Spico will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
