Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Corvo Attano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Laverne Mazzola (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mazzola has chosen Il Canto Degli Italiani as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
