Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between David Rolling (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nikolai King (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Rolling might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Jose Aldo - Can´t Be Stopped . King has chosen Closing Time as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the fighters buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
