Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Kurt Liddell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Avon Stringer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Liddell comes to the cage accompanied by Just Another Victim by Helmet & House of Pain. Stringer has chosen The Loner as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
