Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Ivan Tunjic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roy Bull (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tunjic's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, More then a Feeling. Bull has chosen Black Label Society - Fire It Up as his entrance music. Roy Bull told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
