Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Borat Sagdiyev (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cain Slyker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sagdiyev comes into the arena with Mamaliga blaring out of the sound system. The crowd seem to be enjoying Slyker's choice of entrance music: It's Amazing by Kanye West. 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 Cain Slyker was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
