Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between James Helm (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dieter Von Sprockets (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Helm might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Spazzin - Gary Podunk. Von Sprockets has chosen Rolling Stones- Monkey Man as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
