Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Mateus Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sinbad Baba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gracie comes to the cage accompanied by Broke & Hungry . Baba has chosen King of Seven Seas as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Sinbad Baba was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
