Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between IL PO (ranked 2097 p4p, 257 weight class) and Kwiwan Fogomayu (ranked 723 p4p, 96 weight class). PO's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Tai Chi Kickboxer. Fogomayu is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Kyamadu. IL PO is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
