Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Leonardo Da Silva (ranked 397 p4p, 20 weight class) and Mike Perry (ranked 1273 p4p, 61 weight class). Da Silva kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Kendrick Lamar - Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe. Leonardo Da Silva has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
