Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hades Hug (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Leonel Gatti (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hug's entrance music is Animal I Have Become . A fine choice. 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 Leonel Gatti was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
