Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Attila Hun (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jon Snow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hun's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World. The crowd seem to be enjoying Snow's choice of entrance music: winters coming. 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 Snow was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
