Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Donson Denille (ranked 1328 p4p, 39 weight class) and Bruno Brown (ranked 3379 p4p, 73 weight class). Brown has chosen Mad Dog as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
