Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ivan Drago (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lyoto Tachia (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Drago comes into the arena with SuperBeast 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 Lyoto Tachia was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kent Hytten (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Professor F (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hytten comes to the cage accompanied by Wait and Bleed. The crowd seem to be enjoying F's choice of entrance music: shortest man in world. Both these guys are coming into the fight with injuries so let's see if that has a bearing on the fight. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
