Main event

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between David Kyle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Malaipet Sasiprapa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Kyle might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Big Booty Woman. Sasiprapa has chosen Malaipet the Diamond as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Malaipet Sasiprapa has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
