Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Darius Ellis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Xavier Xenos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ellis's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, 2pac nothing to lose. Xavier Xenos told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
