Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Pedro Fuentes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dutch Haze (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Fuentes might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Transplants - Killafornia. Haze has chosen i stand alone as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Pedro Fuentes has a significant reach advantage - let's see if he can make it count.
