Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Raul Hughes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bart Gimmerson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gimmerson is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Overkill - World of Hurt. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
