Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Luke Ridley (ranked 196 p4p, 306 weight class) and Madkhao Sitsongrit (ranked 26 p4p, 39 weight class). Ridley's entrance music is No Shelter/ Rage Against The Machine. A fine choice. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
