Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Robledo Puch (ranked 663 p4p, 89 weight class) and Ron Jeremy (ranked 924 p4p, 121 weight class). Puch's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Breathe. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
