Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Moai Burns (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ol Bastard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bastard has chosen Ol' Dirty Bastard - Brooklyn Zoo 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 Ol Bastard was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
