Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Shingo Tanaka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eddie Chavo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chavo has chosen Rico Sauve by Girardo as his entrance music. 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?
