Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Arlington Beech (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryan Hopkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Beech comes into the arena with You Know My Name blaring out of the sound system. Hopkins has chosen "The Red" by Chevelle as his entrance music. 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 Ryan Hopkins was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
