Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jeff jr Monsoon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kennedy Embers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Monsoon's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, tnt. Embers has chosen Settle For Nothing by RATM as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Kennedy Embers was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
