Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Augusto Pinochet (ranked 619 p4p, 1303 weight class) and Mako Akumba (ranked 94 p4p, 175 weight class). Pinochet's entrance music is I Need a Pinochet. A fine choice. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Mako Akumba was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
