Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Umberto Reem (ranked 1143 p4p, 36 weight class) and Lucas Marston (ranked 863 p4p, 29 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Reem might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Bad Reputation. Marston has chosen Bring it on motherfucker as his entrance music.
