Undercard bout

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Nikola Tesla (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kato Munechika (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tesla kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is AC/DC's Thunderstruck. Munechika has chosen Requiem for a Dream 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.
