Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Yance Sackett (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Adam Resso (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sackett's entrance music is Snoop Dogg - Vato. A fine choice. Resso comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Avenged Sevenfold-Beast and the Harlot kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
