Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Uchimura Nakata (ranked 1390 p4p, 58 weight class) and Korean Kimchi (ranked 1620 p4p, 73 weight class). Kimchi is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by BigBang & 2NE1 - Lollipop. 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 Korean Kimchi was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
