Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Brock Bateman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bell Marques (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bateman might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Anberlin-True Faith. Marques has chosen Quiribamba as his entrance music. Bell Marques is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
