Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mbaku Camara (ranked 675 p4p, 1407 weight class) and Gavin Burns (ranked 95 p4p, 177 weight class). Burns has chosen Lovely Jubbly as his entrance music. 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 Gavin Burns was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
