Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Obidiah Fitzroy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Leifur Le (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Le has chosen Dying In White - Jucifer 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 Leifur Le was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
