Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Joe Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Silent Bob (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Smith might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to frenzal rhomb - Mum changed the locks. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
