Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sabry Teboulbi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and David Wilkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Wilkins is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by New Noise. 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 David Wilkins was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Daisuke Suzuki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Miyamoto Usagi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Suzuki kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Stranglehold by Ted Nugent. 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 Miyamoto Usagi was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
