Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Nick Cave (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dimas Boykiy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Cave might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Me And The Devil. Boykiy has chosen Перемен as his entrance music. 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.
