Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bruno Bittencourt (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jenzi Machida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bittencourt comes into the arena with Yours Forever blaring out of the sound system. Machida has chosen For Whom The Bell Tolls as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Jenzi Machida was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
