Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Genghis Khan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Okina Miyamoto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Khan comes to the ring accompanied by Ready 4 War. Miyamoto has chosen Namayoshi as his entrance music. Both these fighters are unbeaten, so somebody's 0 has got to go!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 Okina Miyamoto was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
