Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Fjodor Fedja (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nick Quick (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Fedja's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, The Sex Pistols - Anarchy in the UK . Quick comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Indestructible, by Disturbed kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
