Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Buzz Lightyear (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Ozz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lightyear might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. Ozz is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by So What?-Metallica. 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 Jack Ozz was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
