Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hung Dong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Frank Breech (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dong's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Lollipop - BIGBANG and 2NE1. Breech is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by "Flight of the Bumble-bee" by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Hung Dong has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
