Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Boris Cekada (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jon Unbreakable (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Unbreakable has chosen Busta and Yelawolf - Break Ya Neck 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 Jon Unbreakable was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
