Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between DoDo Bird (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wade Dew (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bird comes to the cage accompanied by Hungry by Rob Bailey and the Hustle Standard. 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 Wade Dew was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
