Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Lance St Pierre (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Octavio Paixao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). St Pierre's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, 16 FEVER. Paixao comes into a darkened arena with his song building. "Death by Blonde" by Devotchka kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
