Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Roadman Shaq (ranked 1092 p4p, 138 weight class) and Roy McDavid (ranked 984 p4p, 124 weight class). Shaq comes to the cage accompanied by Mans Not Hot. 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 Roy McDavid was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
