Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Bruce Jenkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andre Van der Laan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jenkins comes to the cage accompanied by take it like a man. Van der Laan has chosen Eazy-E ft. Tupac, The Game - How We Do as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Andre Van der Laan was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
