Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jami Jarr (ranked 720 p4p, 910 weight class) and Dimitri Svyatogor (ranked 22 p4p, 32 weight class). Jarr kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Wahhabi I. Jami Jarr could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Dimitri Svyatogor's chin.
