Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Pablo Soriano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and JP Greywar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Soriano's entrance music is Bebot by The Black Eyed Peas. A fine choice. Greywar has chosen I'm a Catholic girl... as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Pablo Soriano has a significant reach advantage - let's see if he can make it count.
