Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Ryan Cartofell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Diego Sanchez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cartofell kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Cranky Song. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
