Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Odin Takoy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Madden (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Takoy kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Daft Punk - End of Line. Madden has chosen Nelly - Here Comes The Boom! as his entrance music. Johnny Madden struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 266.4lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Johnny Madden acknowledges the crowd's support as he enters the cage.
