Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Chris Redfield (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Casey Ryback (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Redfield might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Believers . Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
