Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Kendall Groove (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Damon Dysprosium (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Groove might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Kasta - Dyi-dyi-dyim (smoke). Damon Dysprosium looks lathargic as he enters the arena. Wake up son, you're about to have a fight!
