Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Julio Ramone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James Stone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ramone comes to the cage accompanied by Shut Up. Stone has chosen Metallica (Stone Cold Crazy) as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
