Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ichi Ijima (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mark Ramos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ijima kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Alphabetical #1 - Karera Musication. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
