Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Phil Davis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ricky Ricardo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ricardo has chosen Culo as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Ricky Ricardo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lucien Smalls (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sol Tavarez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Smalls might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Kelis - Milkshake. 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 Sol Tavarez was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bill Hickok (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bubba Clem (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hickok kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Ari Gold - Let's Hug It Out, BITCH. Clem comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Full Trucker Effect kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Bill Hickok has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
