Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bekan Reykdalsson (ranked 4455 p4p, 276 weight class) and Mbaku Camara (ranked 0 p4p, 38 weight class). 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 Mbaku Camara was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
