Undercard bout

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dmitri Zaitsev (ranked 322 p4p, 17 weight class) and Jimi Powell (ranked 527 p4p, 31 weight class). Powell is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by 8 Mile. 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 Jimi Powell was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
