Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Steve Learmont (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Remy Dunga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Learmont might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Snoop Dogg and Young Jeezy - Wannabes. Steve Learmont could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Remy Dunga's chin.
