Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Donald Natush (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lucky Wasabi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Natush might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Careless Whisper. Wasabi is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Lady Gaga - Pokerface. Donald Natush had a look across the cage there at his opponent. He definitely means business
