Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between The Great Gama (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Julio Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gama comes to the cage accompanied by Skrillex / Equinox. Silva is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Kanye West - Amazing. 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.
