Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Hugh Honey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hadley Jagger (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Honey might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Cruising in Miami by Bass 305. Hugh Honey could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Hadley Jagger's chin.
