Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Braden Alexander (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dudley Dawson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dawson comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Lambda Lambda Lambda Song kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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 Dudley Dawson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
