Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Marcel Clasie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Evander Holyshit (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Clasie comes to the cage accompanied by Sensation White Anthem. Holyshit has chosen Lil Wayne- I feel like dying as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
