Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Daniel Dylan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ray Guida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Guida has chosen Stupid Kid - Alkaline Trio as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
