Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Addition BySubtraction (ranked 1889 p4p, 1369 weight class) and Felix Jaroslav (ranked 190 p4p, 144 weight class). BySubtraction's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Lay My Claim. Jaroslav is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by The Sound of Running Feet. 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.

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Do Ho Joy (ranked 44 p4p, 134 weight class) and Jallu Pesonen (ranked 7 p4p, 15 weight class). Pesonen has chosen DJ Orkidea - Joutsenlaulu 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.
