Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jan Kowalski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Josh Warmaster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Warmaster has chosen Deftones- welcome to the butcher 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 Josh Warmaster was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
