Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ada Reyes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Adam Sullivan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sullivan has chosen I'm Shipping Up To Boston 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.
