Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Chuck Wagon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Leo McGarry (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Wagon might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Requiem For A Dream. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
