Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Corbin Murphy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pablo Escobar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Murphy kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is I'm Shipping Up To Boston. Escobar is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by KoRn En Vivo Mtv. Corbin Murphy has a significant reach advantage - let's see if he can make it count.
