Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Luca Blight (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Prince Buckleberry (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Blight's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Suikoden II - The Chase. Buckleberry has chosen Give Up The Funk 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.
