Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Rob Rayburn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Henry Burt (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rayburn kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Rocket Man. Burt has chosen "I Luv It" - Young Jeezy as his entrance music. 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.
