Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Skrappy Doo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marcus Ehrenholm (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Doo might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Black Eyed Peas - Just Can't Get Enough. Ehrenholm comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Pride Fc Theme kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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 Marcus Ehrenholm was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
