Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sami Sivupotku (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Oloff Larsen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sivupotku's entrance music is Guns N' Roses - It's So Easy. A fine choice. 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 Oloff Larsen was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
