Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kennedy Michaels (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and George Steele (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Michaels comes to the cage accompanied by Folsom Prison Blues cover by Everlast. Steele has chosen Freak On A Leash 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 George Steele was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
