Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Holden Rosenthal (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bob Parker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rosenthal comes to the cage accompanied by Rick Derringer - I Am a Real American. 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 Bob Parker was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
