Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Arzuman Asadov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Janno Gibbs (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Asadov's entrance music is Arzuman Entrance Song. A fine choice. 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 Janno Gibbs was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
