Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Keto Belle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tupa Dufu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Belle's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Going Down . Dufu has chosen Rock You Like A Hurricane as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
