Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Michael Fuko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Glover Crowe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Fuko kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Song For The Dumped by Ben Folds Five. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
