Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Alfonso Lopez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Leonard Washington (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Washington's choice of entrance music: Snuffed Out by Streetlife. Leonard Washington told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
