Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Phillip Barron (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Incredius Roundius (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Barron might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Dizzee Rascal - Bonkers. Incredius Roundius struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.1lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Incredius Roundius has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
