Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cornelius Carr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Edward Blake (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Blake is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Gucci Mane feat. Rick Ross - Head Shots. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
