Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Curt Warburton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jacob Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Warburton comes to the cage accompanied by Wretch 32 ft Delilah_ Don`t Be Afraid. 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 Jacob Smith was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
