Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mikhail Yudovich (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bubba Clem (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Yudovich might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Zetsubou Restaurant (ZSZS ED3 Ver.). Clem has chosen Full Trucker Effect 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.
