Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Cage Nichols (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Peter McBain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nichols's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Backyard Fighting. McBain has chosen Alien8 as his entrance music. 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.
