Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kenichi Misahawa (ranked 2165 p4p, 2114 weight class) and Ameen Robertson (ranked 313 p4p, 307 weight class). Robertson has chosen Regulate - Nate Dogg & Warren G 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 Ameen Robertson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
