Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Lawrence (ranked 1799 p4p, 209 weight class) and Ball Licker (ranked 3346 p4p, 350 weight class). Lawrence kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Defeat Does Not Exist In This Dojo, Does It?. Ball Licker 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. Johnny Lawrence has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
