Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jack Douglas (ranked 535 p4p, 67 weight class) and Barnabas Ungar (ranked 1809 p4p, 212 weight class). Douglas comes to the cage accompanied by Go For a Soda by Kim Mitchell. 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 Barnabas Ungar was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
