Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Colin McLauhglin (ranked 2747 p4p, 278 weight class) and Richard Silva (ranked 2515 p4p, 263 weight class). McLauhglin comes to the ring accompanied by What the hell are you waiting for. Silva is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Architects-Doomsday. 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?
