Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Krisu Leepen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Randy West (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Leepen might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Prodigy - . 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.
