Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Rigoberto Lamas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Locke (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lamas might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Brazilian National Anthem. Locke has chosen Keep Your Eyes Peeled by Queens Of The Stone Age as his entrance music. John Locke is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
