Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Chris Coath (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sungwon Jung (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Coath might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Die for Metal. Jung is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Body Head Bangerz feat. Lil' Boosie & Young Bleed - I Smoke, I Drank. Sungwon Jung has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
