Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Peppu Reiska MacDonald (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Horato Muchada (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think MacDonald might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to ENNIO MORRICONE -"Sixty Seconds To What?". The crowd seem to be enjoying Muchada's choice of entrance music: Duran Duran - Ordinary World. 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.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Thomas Bruso (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bobby Light (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bruso's entrance music is Helena. A fine choice. Light has chosen Ride for This-Fabolous as his entrance music. 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.
