Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Kenny Grohl (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tim Small (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Grohl is coming into this fight with a significant injury, which will no doubt have an effect on his cardio. Tim Small told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
