Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tibo Asztalos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brian Backscratcher (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Asztalos kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Enter Sandman. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
