Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Henry Cejudo (ranked 2914 p4p, 3415 weight class) and Jumes Cartin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Cejudo might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Olympic Spirit. Henry Cejudo could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Jumes Cartin's chin.
