Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Quinton Concrete (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marlo Stanfield (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Concrete might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Pillar : Fire on the Inside. Stanfield has chosen The Wire - Way Down in the Hole (Season 4) as his entrance music. This should be fireworks!
