Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Brian King (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jeremy Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jackson has chosen Highway Star by Deep Purple 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 Jeremy Jackson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
