Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mister McNasty (ranked 345 p4p, 57 weight class) and Pablo Spezziale (ranked 1005 p4p, 156 weight class). Spezziale comes into a darkened arena with his song building. For Heavy Metal we will die! kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Mister McNasty had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.4lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Mister McNasty could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Pablo Spezziale's chin.
