Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Maggot King (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Laurence Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). King kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Make Them Suffer - Widower. Smith has chosen Sick Puppies - Cancer as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bracken Kimimaro (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Seti Setu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Setu has chosen Yelawolf - Catfish Billy as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
