Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jesse James (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Paul Robinson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). James's entrance music is Shook ones. A fine choice. Robinson has chosen None as his entrance music. 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 Paul Robinson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
