Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Britney Spears (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Antero Siren (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Spears might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hit Me Baby One More Time. 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 Antero Siren was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
