Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Knuckle Stone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Willy Wonka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stone comes to the cage accompanied by Gimme Shelter. Wonka is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Mr Rotten Treats - Insane Clown Posse. 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 Willy Wonka was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
