Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Bruno Krause (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Neptune Loveladdy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Krause's entrance music is The Velvet Underground - Who Loves The Sun . A fine choice. Loveladdy is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Simian Mobile Disco - Sacrifice. 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.
