Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Nero Padilla (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Willy Stoppers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Padilla comes to the cage accompanied by Dead by Dawn by Deicide. 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 Willy Stoppers was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
