Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Paul Hewitt (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Stephen Wibowo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). 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 Stephen Wibowo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
