Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Sepp Maier (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sum Ting Wong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Maier kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Apaga mas năo bate. Wong has chosen The Architect - DJ Davey B 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.
