Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Alden Horn (ranked 24441 p4p, 4226 weight class) and Huan Wan (ranked 263 p4p, 309 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 Huan Wan was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
