Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Russell Kairouz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sean Benoit (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kairouz's entrance music is Metallica - Seek and Destroy. 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 Sean Benoit was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
