Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Iqbal Al Mamood (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Noam Chomsky (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Al Mamood comes to the cage accompanied by Mamute Pequenino. Chomsky comes into a darkened arena with his song building. System Of A Down BYOB kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
