Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mantak Garuda (ranked 34 p4p, 56 weight class) and Cerberus Dionisy (ranked 6 p4p, 9 weight class). Garuda kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Djiin Djiin. Dionisy has chosen Voodoo as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
