Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Diego Elvis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jesus Gonzalez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Elvis might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Elvis Presley - In The Ghetto. Diego Elvis could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Jesus Gonzalez's chin.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Armand Krajnc (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brick Top (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Krajnc comes to the cage accompanied by Justin Bieber - Mama's Boy. Top comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Killing in the name kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! On his way into the cage it seems that Armand Krajnc has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Armand Krajnc seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
