Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Blatz Beer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rude Boy Stig (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Beer comes into the arena with blaring out of the sound system. 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 Rude Boy Stig was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
