Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Microscopic Hunt (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sloat Gresham (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hunt kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Bad to The Bone . Gresham has chosen Three Days Grace - Animal I Have Become as his entrance music. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
