Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Titus Kahoohalphala (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Shananigan Lurendrejer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Kahoohalphala might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Diablo Swing Orchestra - Ragdoll Physics. Lurendrejer has chosen Blunt - Reggae Da Nation 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.
