Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Filipe Emiliano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lech Trochomirski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Emiliano kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Era - Enae Volare Mezzo. Trochomirski is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Can't Be Stopped. 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.
