Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Pierre Ping (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Happy Gilmore (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ping kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Open Hapiness. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Happy Gilmore was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
