Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Abdul Muhar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marty Jannety (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Muhar's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Nervecell - Demean. 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 Marty Jannety was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
