Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Antonio Barbosa (ranked 497 p4p, 355 weight class) and Dude McWrestler (ranked 77 p4p, 56 weight class). Barbosa kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Eminem - Go to Sleep. The crowd seem to be enjoying McWrestler's choice of entrance music: Lil Baby - On Me. Antonio Barbosa could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Dude McWrestler's chin.
