Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Milo Markovic (ranked 1470 p4p, 180 weight class) and Boris Zhivago (ranked 2002 p4p, 236 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Zhivago's choice of entrance music: Cold as Ice. Milo Markovic had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.3lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
