Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Bio Hazzard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ivan Horvat (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hazzard might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Sweating Bullets. Horvat has chosen Linkin Park-By Myself 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.
