Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Chris Van De Kamp (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Benjamin Belleville (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Van De Kamp might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Sister Sin - Fight Song. Belleville is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: The Offspring - You're Gonna Go Far, Kid . Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
