Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between John Fadden (ranked 3241 p4p, 415 weight class) and Roberto Kim (ranked 4826 p4p, 526 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Fadden might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hate Song by THE HAUNTED. Roberto Kim struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 171.1lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. John Fadden could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Roberto Kim's chin.
