Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Olyn Seran (ranked 659 p4p, 1122 weight class) and Wulfgang Bleak (ranked 83 p4p, 140 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Seran might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Sound of Silence - Disturbed. Bleak has chosen Du Hast - Rammstein 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.
