Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Pena Hirmu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and BJ Belfort (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hirmu might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to AC/DC - War Machine. Belfort has chosen Jedi Mind Tricks - Death March as his entrance music. Pena Hirmu could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to BJ Belfort's chin.
