Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Josh Wentworth (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vernon Turner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Wentworth comes to the cage accompanied by Spitfire by The Prodigy. 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 Vernon Turner was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
