Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Avon Barksdale (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Christer Pettersson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Barksdale might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Three Six Mafia - Its A Fight . Pettersson has chosen Korn - Did My Time as his entrance music. Avon Barksdale could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Christer Pettersson's chin.
