Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Alexey Andreev (ranked 240 p4p, 35 weight class) and Pete Granger (ranked 132 p4p, 19 weight class). Granger has chosen Get Ya Strut On - Lord Have Mercy as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
