Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Alexander Woodrow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marmaduke Cholmondley Smythe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Woodrow might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Lumberjack Song. Cholmondley Smythe has chosen He is an Englishman as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
