Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Stacker Pentacost (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Luciano Bizarria (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pentacost comes to the cage accompanied by Code Blue Coma/ Downset. Bizarria has chosen Arnaldo Antunes - Alta Noite as his entrance music. 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 Luciano Bizarria was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
