Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Schwartz Gomez (ranked 139 p4p, 237 weight class) and Humors Lacplesis (ranked 18 p4p, 37 weight class). Gomez's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, POP SMOKE - GOT IT ON ME. 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 Humors Lacplesis was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
