Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Diego Falcao (ranked 437 p4p, 17 weight class) and Barack Obama (ranked 1050 p4p, 49 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Falcao might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Charon - Sorrow Song. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
