Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bart Brick (ranked 3790 p4p, 422 weight class) and Demario Johnson (ranked 3032 p4p, 349 weight class). Brick comes into the arena with Move blaring out of the sound system. Johnson is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Somebodies Gonna Get It. 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 Demario Johnson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
