Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ray Thomas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bronko Johnson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Johnson's choice of entrance music: Azad - Bandog. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
