Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Bane Baphomet (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pac Quiao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Baphomet comes to the cage accompanied by 2 Pac - Hail Mary. Quiao is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Water Song - Jorma Kaukonen. Bane Baphomet had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 137.5lbs, 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. Bane Baphomet could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Pac Quiao's chin.
