Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Evgeni Elkemenchi (ranked 2352 p4p, 266 weight class) and Samak Tiyapairat (ranked 3118 p4p, 333 weight class). Tiyapairat comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Ram Muay kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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 Samak Tiyapairat was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
