Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bryan Stewart (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gonna Bust (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stewart's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Scotland the Brave. Bust comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Shook ones 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 Gonna Bust was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
