Undercard bout

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Fu Leng (ranked 266 p4p, 8 weight class) and Keone Kapisi (ranked 610 p4p, 29 weight class). Leng kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is System Of A Down - Spiders. 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 Keone Kapisi was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
