Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Akuma Kamealoha (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Holly Stackhouse (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kamealoha kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Somewhere over the rainbow. Stackhouse has chosen Tool - Jambi as his entrance music. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
