Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Angel Pain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eddard Stark (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pain comes into the arena with "Meet the Monster" Five Finger Death Punch blaring out of the sound system. Angel Pain had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.4lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Angel Pain had a look across the cage there at his opponent. He definitely means business
