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.

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Andrei Kersikov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ranky Scorpion (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kersikov comes to the cage accompanied by Avicii - Wake Me Up ft Aloe Blacc. Scorpion has chosen Sympathy For The Devil 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.
