Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Frank Mcgrath (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dave Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mcgrath's entrance music is 50 cent feat. Akon - I'll still kill. A fine choice. Jones has chosen Go DJ by Lil Wayne as his entrance music. 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 Dave Jones was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
