Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Kung Lao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tom Watson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lao comes to the cage accompanied by Mortal Kombat-Techno Kombat. Watson is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Aesop Rock - None Shall Pass. 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.
