Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Max Pain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rellik X (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pain's entrance music is Step Up. A fine choice. X comes into a darkened arena with his song building. I Gotta Feeling kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
