Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Yushin Ayoki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yoshi Yamaguchi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ayoki might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "Eye for an Eye" by Blacklisted. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the ring.
