Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Chance Boudreaux (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jason Turner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Boudreaux's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Forsake Not The Dream. 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 Jason Turner was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
