Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Dean Corll (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Josh Massey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Corll comes to the cage accompanied by South Texas Death Ride. Massey is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by 5 minutes Alone. 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.
