Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Kaoklai Khanomtom (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Barney Lee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Khanomtom comes to the cage accompanied by Jill Tracy - Pulling Your Insides Out. Lee is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: On To The Next One. 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 Barney Lee was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
