Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Hans Moleman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James La Grande (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Moleman kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Jay-Z - Run This Town. La Grande has chosen Gemini Club-Sparklers as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Moleman has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
