Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Blake Westcutt (ranked 2808 p4p, 343 weight class) and Doug Douglas (ranked 3774 p4p, 434 weight class). Westcutt kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Nick Nolan - Life of Sin. Douglas is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: The Ballad of Curtis Loew. 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 Doug Douglas was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
