Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Melvin Tucker (ranked 5902 p4p, 268 weight class) and Duke Dukerson (ranked 5740 p4p, 263 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 Duke Dukerson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
