Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kain Saint (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Charles Steinburger (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Saint kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Be Aggresive by Faith No More. Steinburger has chosen Throw the Jew down the well as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
