Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Patrick Jane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Juan Corrida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Corrida has chosen Shadowhunter 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 Juan Corrida was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
