Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Old Fuck (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Charles St Lickitung (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). St Lickitung comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Pokemon Red Gym Leader Battle Music kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Old Fuck had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.8lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Old Fuck is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
