Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Dante Evangelisti (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tweedle Dee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Evangelisti might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hunting For Death. Dee is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Chumbawamba - Tubthumping. 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.
