Main event

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kevin Lockley (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Seth Mangler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lockley comes to the cage accompanied by Disney's Gummy Bears Intro (Rus). Mangler has chosen I Stand Alone as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
