Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jeffrey Lebowski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Diego Simeone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lebowski might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Lookin' Out My Back Door by Creedence. Simeone has chosen Brucia Ancora as his entrance music.
