Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Sutton Ripley (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mike Vallely (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ripley's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Danzig - Hand Of Doom. Vallely has chosen CKY - 96 Quite Bitter Beings as his entrance music. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
