Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jason Fernandez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hannibal King (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Fernandez might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Yakety Sax. Hannibal King has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
