Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jimmi Nedram (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jorge Domingo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nedram kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Walk With Me In HELL!!!!. 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 Jorge Domingo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
