Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Road Block (ranked 4839 p4p, 182 weight class) and Jordan Barrett (ranked 3899 p4p, 158 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Block might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Motherfucking G.I. Joe Theme.. Barrett has chosen Inner Self - Sepultura as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Block is coming into this fight with a significant injury, which will no doubt have an effect on his cardio. Jordan Barrett has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
