Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Leeroy Jenkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pozar Pozar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jenkins's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Rock On. Pozar is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: z Buta Wjeżdzam. Pozar Pozar struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 136.4lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Leeroy Jenkins is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
