Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ronald McDonald (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Baddusousus Fatherfockerusus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McDonald's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, EARTH CRISIS: DESTROY THE MACHINES. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
