Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Thiago Araujo (ranked 470 p4p, 26 weight class) and Albert Van Rooy (ranked 412 p4p, 17 weight class). 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 Albert Van Rooy was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
