Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Trang Troc (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rex Tremendous (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Troc comes to the cage accompanied by Dr. Octagon - Real Raw. Tremendous has chosen Rex Tremendae 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 Rex Tremendous was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
