Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hessu Hopo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alex Vetchnikov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hopo comes to the cage accompanied by Bodies. 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 Alex Vetchnikov was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
