Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between James Madison (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Edson Perry (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Perry's choice of entrance music: Shadow of the Day. 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 Edson Perry was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
