Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Amir Hadrovic (ranked 5644 p4p, 4866 weight class) and Ksawery Supko (ranked 578 p4p, 533 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Supko's choice of entrance music: Mój Świat. 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 Ksawery Supko was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
