Undercard bout

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sigfredo Pineda (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and King Nile (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Pineda might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Now or Never by Dope. The crowd seem to be enjoying Nile's choice of entrance music: Walk Like An Egyptian. 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.
