Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Trash Talking (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sasha Zamiatin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Zamiatin comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Tuvinian Singing kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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 Sasha Zamiatin was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
