Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Jhogo Ko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Donnie Stevens (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ko might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to DJ Khaled - All I do is win. 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 Donnie Stevens was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
