Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Nick Durling (ranked 889 p4p, 1030 weight class) and Arto Jarvinen (ranked 121 p4p, 139 weight class). Durling's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, BABYMETAL - KARATE. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
