Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hari Rama (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roberto Cavalli (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Rama might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Rap Music. Cavalli has chosen The Offspring - Pretty fly (bass cover) as his entrance music.
