Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kingo Kongo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Billy Slapper (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Slapper is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Dr. Worm. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
