Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Sergei Sokolov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mamoru Takamura (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Takamura has chosen HEKIREKI as his entrance music. 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 Mamoru Takamura was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
