Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Aki Sunn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mohsen Mosaddegh (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Sunn might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Yngwie Malmsteen Rising Force. Mohsen Mosaddegh has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Aki Sunn's chin.
