Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sergei Onatopp (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Justin Travis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Onatopp comes to the cage accompanied by O Fortuna. 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 Justin Travis was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
