Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Don Dragon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Stan Burton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dragon's entrance music is puff the magic dragon. A fine choice. 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 Stan Burton was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
