Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Chev Chelios (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Antoine Wallace (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chelios's entrance music is In Waves. A fine choice. Wallace comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Pray by Jay-Z feat. Rob Dougan kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman!
