Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Malaki Isafoa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jefferson Hicks (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Isafoa might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Offspring - Come Out And Play (Keep Em' Seperated). Both fighters look pumped up here. Let's hope this is a good fight!
