Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Shane Winslow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Franky Train (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Winslow's entrance music is KJ-52 - Let's go. 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 Franky Train was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
