Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Bob Probert (ranked 283 p4p, 901 weight class) and Kuromiya Hiro (ranked 21 p4p, 72 weight class). Probert kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is DNA. 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.
