Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Delphino Atlantis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryzen Dall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Atlantis kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Rancid - Time Bomb. Dall has chosen Scarecrow as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Delphino Atlantis is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
