Watch out for Kiko France on the undercard. He is the bjj coach at American Top Team in Columbia, Missouri. He came to Missouri by way of ATT in Florida. Last fight was a tough fought tko loss to Chris Davis. I fought Davis back in January on three days notice. Davis should be in the UFC in no time. France has powerful kicks and obviously a great ground game. Good luck Kiko!
