Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Carlos Monroe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mink Furer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Monroe might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Danzig - Mother. The crowd seem to be enjoying Furer's choice of entrance music: Peoples champ. Both fighters look pumped up here.
