Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Johnson Juarez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Chambers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Juarez's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, SYSTEM OF A DOWN - Prison Song. Chambers has chosen Ain't No Rest for the Wicked as his entrance music. John Chambers is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
