Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Matt St Pierre (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John The Pitbull (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). St Pierre kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Territoire Hostile. The Pitbull has chosen Three 6 Mafia - It's a Fight as his entrance music. Both these guys are coming into the fight with injuries so let's see if that has a bearing on the fight. Matt St Pierre is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
