Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Knocko Blocko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alex Cordoba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cordoba is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: English Fire by CoF. 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 Alex Cordoba was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
