Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Morrison Lee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and DJ Thunda (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lee's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, The Pretender. 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 DJ Thunda was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
