Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Crowe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Short Low (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Crowe kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is How I Could Just Kill A Man. The crowd seem to be enjoying Low's choice of entrance music: Short People. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
