Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Gonzo Bunga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dana Black (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bunga kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Nova. Black has chosen Onward to Victory 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.
