Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Sigvard Aurelius (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dave Long (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Aurelius comes to the cage accompanied by Marcia Carolus Rex. Long has chosen I bust heads as his entrance music. 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 Dave Long was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
