Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jesco White (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ivo Petric (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). White comes to the cage accompanied by Smoke the Fire. 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 Ivo Petric was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
