Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kai Raymaker (ranked 613 p4p, 1767 weight class) and Art Vincent Dela Cruz (ranked 79 p4p, 208 weight class). Raymaker comes into the arena with Key Glock - Mr.Glock blaring out of the sound system. The crowd seem to be enjoying Dela Cruz's choice of entrance music: This is the Moment. 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.
