Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Scott Peterson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bane Baphomet (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Peterson comes into the arena with Invasion of the Bodysnatcher blaring out of the sound system. Baphomet is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: 2 Pac - Hail Mary. Bane Baphomet struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 136.5lbs 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. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
