Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tony Mendez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Herbert Truck (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Truck has chosen Indestructible 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 Herbert Truck was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
