Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Steven Christie (ranked 3590 p4p, 1158 weight class) and Flo Holl (ranked 274 p4p, 100 weight class). Christie comes to the cage accompanied by Amityville. 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 Flo Holl was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
