Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Terry Tonbridge (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Patrick McGillicutty (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tonbridge comes into the arena with The Cumshots - I Drink Alone 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 Patrick McGillicutty was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
