Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lambis Kobelikos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ned Bigsbee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bigsbee has chosen Gin & Juice as his entrance music. Lambis Kobelikos looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
