Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jed Masilungan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Europha Emanuel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Masilungan comes into the arena with Dying Inside blaring out of the sound system. Emanuel is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: I'm Not Jesus - Apocalyptica. Europha Emanuel told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
