Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Julius Jenkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Freiherr Albrecht Alexander von Altenburg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jenkins's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, NYC Crack - Wu Tang Clan. von Altenburg is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Richard Wagner's Die Walküre. 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.

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Keiji Hashimoto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Angus Young (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hashimoto might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Chopin's Funeral March in B flat minor. Young has chosen AC/DC - Live Wire as his entrance music. 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!
