Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between James Braddock (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bobby McBobby (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Braddock's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Bulls on Parade - Rage against the machine. McBobby comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Cold as Ice -- MOP kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Bobby McBobby told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
