Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Rafael Vasquez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bacardi Breezer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Vasquez might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Rolling Stones-Gimmie Shelter. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the ring.
