Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Robb Spewak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Digger Mcgee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Spewak kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is The German National Anthem. Mcgee has chosen Carmina Burana as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
