Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Marlon Worthy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Antti Rannanjarvi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Worthy's entrance music is Drop the world. A fine choice. Rannanjarvi comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Stonehenge by Spinal Tap kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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 Antti Rannanjarvi was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
