Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Pete Patterson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joao Alves (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Alves has chosen Carl Orff - Carmina Burana - André Rieu's version as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Joao Alves is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
