Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Alistar Overeem (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Thomas Bruso (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Overeem comes into the arena with right above it lil wayne blaring out of the sound system. The crowd seem to be enjoying Bruso's choice of entrance music: Helena. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Thomas Bruso was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
