Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Brycen Gionet (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Flakey Dryskin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gionet kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is "Mosh" by Eminem. 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 Flakey Dryskin was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
