Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rip James (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Denzel Douglas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think James might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to What's the difference. Douglas is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Hit Em Up. 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 Denzel Douglas was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
