Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Philippe Leclerc (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Paul Tylor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Leclerc's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, La Marseillaise. 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 Paul Tylor was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
