Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Caio Cesar Caprillo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Karen Awanian (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Caprillo might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Beatles - Here Comes The Sun. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
