Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Pjotr Markov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mr Ac (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Markov kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Drowning Pool - Bodies. Ac has chosen Death Walks Behind You 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.
