Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jakobi Smithy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jonathan Sparks (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Smithy might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Korn: "Freak on a Leash". Jakobi Smithy could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Jonathan Sparks's chin.
