Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Roland Spliffs (ranked 4007 p4p, 24293 weight class) and Hendrix Rosa (ranked 448 p4p, 641 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Spliffs might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Smoke Some Weed by Ice Cube. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
