Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Bat Slade (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Matheus Buckner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Slade's entrance music is Billy Joel - Goodnight Saigon. A fine choice. Buckner is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Stand Your Ground And Fight - Acarine (GSE). 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.
