Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Aaron Velazquez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Math Lafer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Velazquez comes to the cage accompanied by Eminem - Go to sleep. 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 Math Lafer was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
