Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Thomas Stark (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ivan Arlovski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stark comes to the cage accompanied by Cmon Feel The Noise. Arlovski is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Slayer - Hell Awaits. 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 Ivan Arlovski was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
