Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Shang Chi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Osgar MacGregor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). MacGregor has chosen Scotland The Brave (Leonidas) as his entrance music. 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 Osgar MacGregor was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
