Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between John Lehnnon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Boo Boo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Boo's choice of entrance music: If I had a Million Dollars. 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 Boo Boo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
