Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Uasay Almeida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Adolf Mossulini (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Almeida's entrance music is Vater Unser. A fine choice. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
