Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Stan DiUpmon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Willie Nuxhall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nuxhall is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: The Final Countdown. 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 Willie Nuxhall was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
