Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dexter Morleaux (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and D C Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Morleaux's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Massive Attack feat. Mos Def - I Against I. Jackson comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Real American kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
